Appointments

Appointments can be made by telephone or in person during the above opening hours and up to two weeks in advance unless specified by the Doctor or Nurse.

You may be asked the reason for your appointment if you are seeing a nurse. This is due to the fact that appointment times with practice nurses vary according to the type of procedure being carried out so that they must be booked accordingly. Having a reason also enables our nurses to ensure that they are prepared for the patient's needs e.g. having equipment ready for a smear or wond dressing etc...

We treat all of our registered patients, irrespective of the duration between consultations.

If you wish to see a specific clinician, then please make this clear at the time of booking your appointment.

Southwark also offers a scheme called Pharmacy First for the treatment of a range of minor ailments that don't require you to see a Doctor or Nurse. Your local pharmacist can offer advice and also prescribe treatments which you can get for free if you are entitled to free prescriptions.

The Pharmacy First scheme covers advice and treatment for the conditions below:
