There are pre-bookable telephone appointments available with a doctor both before surgery starts and after. These appointments are available to book online or via the reception team. Telephone appointments are useful for those patients who do not require a face-to-face consultation but would benefit from a GP's medical advice or a discussion concerning test results, for example.
Both sites are closed Saturdays, Sundays and all bank holidays.
The dispensary closes at 1.00pm on Thursday afternoons.
Little Paxton surgery is closed Tuesday and Thursday afternoon from 12.45pm.
Weekends & Night Cover
Hertfordshire Urgent Care (HUC) is responsible for the on-call service. If you need a doctor outside normal surgery hours - from 6.00pm - 8.00am on weekdays and all weekend and bank holidays – telephone our usual switchboard number on 01480 810216. Options will be presented and your call will be received and forwarded to the surgery doctor on-call or you may be be advised to redial 111 services for advice.
Emergencies
If you are confronted by a serious problem such as severe chest pain or profuse bleeding call an ambulance (tel: 999) before calling the surgery.
