NEW - Improved Access Appointments

From 1 April 2018 the following practices are participating in a pilot scheme to offer SEVEN DAY access to a GP or Advanced Nurse Practitioner appointment:
Leckhampton; Cleeveland; Sixways; Stoke Road; and Winchcombe Medical Centre.

This means that appointments will be available at one of the listed practices on a rotating basis outside of normal working hours.
These appointments are pre-bookable through your normal practice, but please note there is no telephone access to the surgeries after 6.30pm Monday to Friday or at weekends.

For urgent appointments, on Saturday afternoons and all day Sunday up until 8pm, a county-wide service will be provided from three central locations in Cheltenham, Stroud and Gloucester.

We hope that our patients will find these Improved Access appointments helpful, particularly those people who need to book appointments outside of normal working hours.
