Changes to our Extended Hours

From 6th June we will be changing the extended hours we offer. This has come about due to a reduction in funding locally for Surgeries to provide a complete service which includes reception beyond 6.30pm. As a result we will only be open late on one weekday night rather than three. We will continue to provide the extended hours service on the last Saturday of each month as usual.

However, we do still intend to offer the same number of additional late appointments that we offer now by getting our doctors to work on the same night. In other words, although our flexibility has been curtailed, our capacity will not change.
