Extended Access to Primary Care

People in South Tyneside can now access GP services until 8:00pm on weekdays and Saturdays.  This is for patients who find it difficult to attend during regular hours or whose conditions worsen and feel the need to be seen quickly.

You will be seen at another surgery in South Tyneside.  When booking these appointments staff will give you the full address and postcode.

You MUST book ahead via this practice either in person or by phone Monday – Friday during surgery hours.  After 6pm you can call NHS111 who will signpost you to the most appropriate service.

All routine appointments with a doctor, nurse or health care assistant can be accommodated.  Healthcare staff who see and treat you will be from another practice.
