IMPORTANT NOTICES:

**Updated (27/06/2024)**

Important information about the surgery on 27/06/2024 from 13:00 until 17:00

Please be aware that on 27/06/2024 from 13:00 until 17:00 the surgery will be closed.

However, there are several ways in which you can still access services from your Bexley GP and nurse.

• Please use our online contact portal found on our main home page to submit a non urgent query.

• If you have an urgent medical problem (that is not life threatening) and are unsure what to do NHS 111 can be contacted by dialling 111 or online at 111.nhs.uk

• For any urgent medical advice (that is not life threatening) but cannot wait until the surgery reopens at 17:00, you can call the Urgent Treatment Centre on 020 3910 7204.

Please note this is only for urgent medical advice, for anything else i.e., prescriptions, appointments, results please contact the surgery during opening hours. Services at the practice will fully resume from 17:00 on the same day.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your cooperation.

Effective today (24/06/2024), patients are required to enter the building via the intercom system at our Granville Road site during the following times:

  • Thursday evenings from 6pm till 8pm
  • Saturday morning from 8am till 12pm

Notices will be placed on the main and side entrance doors to advise patients of this change.

Please note that access to the building during these periods will only be granted through the intercom system operated by our reception staff.

We regret the necessity of this measure, but it is essential for ensuring controlled access when fewer staff are available on site.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. 

Important Notice: Suspension of Phlebotomy Clinic Services

Due to the recent Synnovis cyber attack, our practice is unable to provide phlebotomy clinic services at this time. This means all routine blood appointments are suspended until further notice.

We understand the inconvenience this may cause and are closely monitoring the situation. As soon as we receive more information, we will update you promptly.
