PCN Standard Network Hours

The surgery offers extended hours through our Primary Care Network (PCN) new 'Standard Network Hours'. These appointments will be varied including young persons mental health, Covid vaccine clinics and you may need to attend another local practice.

Currently we do offer GP appointments at The Elms on:

Monday evening from 6.30-7.45pm and 

Friday morning from 07:00 - 08.00 

All appointments at this time are pre-bookable. Reception operates on a skeleton staff during this session and general queries and appointment bookings cannot be accommodated.

Telephones and the main reception open at 08:00am and close at 6.30pm. 

These appointments are especially beneficial to those patients who find daytime appointments difficult.
