Extended access

Appointments with a GP or practice nurse are now available in the evenings and weekends for patients registered at this practice. These are called ‘extended access’ appointments.

We are working with other practices in Bedfordshire to provide these additional appointments to increase access to healthcare at times that are convenient to patients.

When you call to make an appointment we may offer you an extended access appointment. This appointment could be held at another local practice and with a GP or practice nurse from another practice.

Our reception team will confirm all of the details at the time of booking and if you are registered to receive text message alerts, you will receive a text message to confirm the date, time and location of your appointment.

If you need help when we are closed

If you need medical help now, use NHS 111 online or call 111.

NHS 111 online is for people aged 5 and over. Call 111 if you need help for a child under 5.

The patient will either be given telephone advice, a face to face appointment or a home visit.

If a patient requires a face to face appointment, they will be allocated an appointment at one of the locations listed below:

  • Biggleswade Hospital, Potton Road, Biggleswade
  • Bedford Hospital, Kempston Road, Bedford
  • Town Centre GP Surgery, Luton
  • Leighton Buzzard Health Centre
  • Priory Gardens Surgery, Dunstable
  • Highlands, Flitwick

Call 999 in a medical or mental health emergency. This is when someone is seriously ill or injured and their life is at risk.

Accessibility

There is good disabled access to both Potton and Gamlingay sites. All of our consultation rooms are at ground level offering easy access to wheelchairs. There are designated disabled parking bays at both sites. We also have a loop system for the hard of hearing.

Accessible information

The practice always tries to improve on communication with our patients. We want to make sure you can read and understand the information we send you. If you find it hard to read our letters, or if you need someone to support you at appointments, please let us know.

Please let us know if you need information in large print, easy read or need a British Sign Language interpreter or advocate.

Our website is designed so that you can change the size and colour of the font used. If you wish to do so, please visit our website accessibility statement page for information and a guide on how to do this.
