Blackfriars Medical Practice

Opening Hours

When we are closed

When our practice is closed you can still get support. You can get expert medical advice and useful information by calling NHS 111 or through 111 online.

The NHS 111 service is available 24 hours a day and can provide patient information, issue prescriptions to a pharmacy of your choice, book a GP appointment, and, if necessary, refer people to emergency services. 

• You can also visit a local pharmacist (chemist) and ask for advice.
• In a serious or life threatening emergency you should call 999 or go to the nearest Accident & Emergency Department. Chest pains and/or shortness of breath constitute an emergency.

8am – 8pm GP Access 7 days a week for residents in North Southwark

We have worked with other local practices within our GP Federation (Quay Health Solutions CIC), to provide access to a doctor 7 days a week at a central hub location in North Southwark. This is not a walk-in service. An appointment can be booked at this hub by a Clinician at your practice if it is right for you. For some patients, for instance those with more complex needs, it is more suitable to be seen at your own practice.  You would also need to agree to share your medical records with the hub on arrival. Please ask at the practice for more information or download the leaflet below: 

Pharmacy First

The Pharmacy First scheme gives you quick and local access to advice and treatment from the pharmacist at your local pharmacy about common illnesses. You don’t need an appointment and you don’t need to see your doctor. If you don’t pay for your prescriptions the pharmacist will be able to give you medicines to treat the conditions listed in the link below and they will be FREE:
