Appointments

The surgery is open from 8:00 am to 6:30 pm Monday to Friday. During opening hours, the phone lines are closed between 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm.

We are aware the phone lines are very busy. If possible, we recommend contacting us by using our website instead of calling the practice. The website allows you to request appointments, seek information about health symptoms, conditions or treatment, request Fit Notes or ask us for help on any other issue.

Some of our appointments are delivered by Healthsense PCN, our Primary Care Network. These are delivered from various local locations like The Pinn Medical Centre, The Ridgeway Surgery, and The Alexandra Avenue Health and Social Care Centre. The appointments may also be offered in the evening or weekends. Please note, from April 2025, these will be delivered from The Alexandra Avenue Health and Social Care Centre only.

If you need medical advice, please submit a request using our online triage platform.

Alternatively, you can call us on 0208 863 3333. The care navigator will be able to assist you with your query.
