New arrangements for evening and weekend GP appointments
GP practices across north east London now provide appointments outside normal practice hours, to ensure patients can more easily get help when they need it.
Patients can book routine appointments, on weekday evenings from 6.30pm to 8pm and on Saturdays from 9am to 5pm. These evening and weekend appointments may take place by phone, video, or face-to-face depending on clinical need via two 'enhanced access' services.
In addition to this, GP Access Hubs will continue to offer access to urgent appointments on weekday evenings between 6.30pm and 10pm (8pm in Hackney and City of London), and on weekends and bank holidays from 8am to 8pm.
