Appointments

Appointments between 9am and 6:30pm are made on the same day, please call early to book from 8:30am.

Only one problem will be dealt with in these appointments. Same-day urgent appointments will be dealt with by either a Nurse Practitioner or GP. A nurse may call you back to triage emergency same day appointment requested.

If your request is considered urgent, our reception team will contact you to offer a same-day appointment. Please note that same-day appointments can only be offered within the same morning or afternoon that the request is made, so ensure you are available to attend the GP practice if needed.

These are 10 minutes long, please help us to run on time by prioritising which problems you want discussed. It would be helpful if requests for routine appointments were made after 10am.

For continuity of care please try and book with the same clinician.

You must give your employer a doctor's 'fit note' (sometimes called a 'sick note') if you've been ill for more than 7 days in a row and have taken sick leave. This includes non-working days, such as weekends and bank holidays.

If you need a home visit, you can help us by calling reception before 11am.

Telephone: 0208 808 2837

Please ask for home visits only when the patient is too ill to attend the surgery, if at all possible it is best to come to the surgery where we have better facilities for examination. The reception may ask for further details to assist the doctor to assess the need for a home visit.

DNA means that a patient does not turn up for their appointment and does not contact the surgery in advance to cancel/change appointment. The effect of these are:

• An increase in the waiting time for appointments
• Frustration for both staff and patients
• Costs the NHS billions of pounds per year
• Prevents someone else who is sick to be seen sooner

Unfortunately, patients frequently missing booked appointments is a wasted resource that other patients nor the surgery cannot accept. Although we send a complimentary appointment reminder text to patients, it is the duty of the patient to remember and attend their pre booked appointment. If a patient fails to attend a pre-booked appointment (doctor or nurse) then this is considered to be a missed or DNA appointment.

We recommend all patients to arrive on time for their appointments. However, if a patient arrives more than 10 minutes late for their appointment this will be considered as a missed appointment or DNA and the patient may not be seen. However, if the patient contacts the practice in advance and notifies them that they are running up to 15 minutes late, the patient will often be seen and accommodated but this will be at the nurse or doctor's discretion. Patients arriving on time will ensure that:

• We reduce costs to the NHS
• Clinics run on time
• Ensure that the doctor is not rushed
