Out-of-Hours services

Out-of-hours appointments are available to patients registered with a Rochford District Primary Care Network practice from 7am to 8am on weekdays, and from 9am to 5pm on Saturdays.

 

An out-of-hours appointment might not be at your regular GP surgery, but will usually be held at either Puzey Family Practice or Ashingdon Medical Centre. Please ask for confirmation of the location when booking your appointment.

 

These appointments will not be available as walk-in appointments. You will need to book them in advance.

 

To book an out-of-hours appointment, you should contact your regular GP practice in the usual way. They will advise you on the appointments which are available, and which healthcare professional is the right person to help you.

 

The previous weekend service, where appointments were held at either Audley Mills Surgery in Rayleigh or the GPHA clinic in Hadleigh has now closed.

 

If you need medical help now but it’s not an emergency, you can also go to 111 online or call 111.
