The practice operates an evening surgery every Thursday for pre-booked appointments at Greenwood Health Centre, Burntwood.

From September 2018, we are working in conjunction with other practices in Burntwood and Lichfield to offer pre-booked weekend and evening appointments. The surgery will be open for pre-booked appointments on a rota basis approximately every 4 weeks and provide the following sessions:

• Thursday Evening: 16.00 - 20.30
• Saturday Morning: 09.30 - 11.30
• Sunday Morning: 09.30 - 12.30

Please note, we close for one afternoon each month for staff training and updates.  During this time, for urgent problems that cannot wait until the following day, please telephone the practice and you will either be transferred to the out of hours service or will be advised how to contact the appropriate service.  You are also able to ring 111 (please see separate page for details)

The P.L.T training sessions for 2022 are as follows:

• 14th March 2023
• 18th April 2023
• 16th May 2023
• 20th June 2023

Outside of normal surgery hours, for urgent problems that cannot wait until the following day, please telephone the practice and you will either be transferred to the out of hours service or will be advised how to contact the appropriate service.  You are also able to ring NHS 111.

Out-of-hours services are generally busy so please think carefully before asking to see a doctor and only do so if you genuinely cannot wait until the surgery re-opens.

In a genuine emergency you should call 999. Chest pains and / or shortness of breath constitute an emergency.  

NHS 111 online is a fast and convenient alternative to the 111 phone service and provides an option for people who want to access 111 digitally.

• Treat yourself at home
• Go to a Primary Care Centre

If you need face to face medical attention you may be asked to attend a Primary Care Centre.
