Urgent Telephone Triage

  • There are appointments on each working day available for patients requiring urgent access to clinical advice and treatment; these will be with either a GP or the advanced nurse practitioner.
  • You will be asked by the receptionist for brief details of the reasons for the appointment and advised accordingly; this is to ensure that these appointments are used appropriately for urgent problems.
  • During our core hours of opening there will be a Duty Doctor available to assess urgent problems.
  • The duty doctor will also be responsible for undertaking home visits as well as liaising with outside agencies such as hospitals, social services and care homes. 

Face to Face appointment

  • Can be booked by clinicians only at the Surgery or at a local health centre after Telephone Triage/e-Consult, if deemed necessary.

Home visits

Doctor preference: Patients have the right to choose which GP they see however we are unable to guarantee that a particular GP will be available when required and if not we will endeavour to provide a suitable appointment with another GP.

All registered patients can request an appointment with a GP or a nurse irrespective of when they last attended the practice. The practice regrets that we do not offer a walk-in service and advise patients to contact the practice before attending. To book an appointment please call 020 8299 1234 or call in to make an appointment.

Appointments for GPs and nurses last 10 minutes. Double appointments are available on request if you have more than one concern. Please specify it to the receptionist, if you book an urgent appointment or send an e-Consult enquiry.

PLEASE NOTE: Calls to this number are charged at local rate if using a BT landline. We ask that patients check with their provider if using another network as call costs can vary and may cost considerably more from a mobile phone.
