Enhanced Access Hubs
We also offer evening and weekend appointments through local hubs across the city. If you are registered in one of our practices and need an evening or weekend appointment, you can call your GP surgery and ask for an enhanced Access appointment. Doctors, nurses and pharmacists all work these clinics and you may be better suited with one of these clinicians.
