Surgery Times

Making Evening and Weekend Appointments – Giving You More Choice

GP practices in this area are making it easier for you to make appointments at times which suit you.

We are part of a new scheme that allows you to make appointments from 6.30pm-10pm on week days, from 8am to 4.30pm on Saturdays, and on Sunday mornings.
If you do need to see someone, we can offer you an appointment at your local ‘hub’ location: Fareham Community Hospital.
You will be seen by a locally-based healthcare professional – the service is led by GPs but also includes other staff such as nurses, or healthcare assistants.
Please note: the new extended opening hours is not a walk-in service – you need to make an appointment.
You can make an appointment by talking to our surgery staff and booking a slot in the normal way. If we are closed and you think you need to see someone more urgently, you can call NHS 111 to ask to make an appointment.

For more information, talk to our staff, or click here for our Question and Answer section.

The surgery is open from Monday to Friday 8:00am - 6:00pm.
The switchboard is manned from 8:00am - 1:00pm and 2:00pm - 6:30pm.

Please note, the surgery is open for pre-booked routine appointments only outside these normal surgery hours on alternate Monday evenings and every Friday morning from 7.40am and one Saturday morning each month.

Please note that the doctors' consulting rooms are on the ground and first floor of the practice. We do not have a lift to the first floor, and alternative arrangements have been made to see patients downstairs who have appointments with an upstairs doctor. Any patient unable to manage the stairs must request a downstairs room when booking their appointment.

Named GP

Patients may request to see any of our doctors regardless of who their named GP is.

Patients formerly registered with Dr K Tan are currently being managed by Dr A Larkins. Requests to change allocated GP are not necessary as all patients have access to all clinicians.

General Practitioner Registrars and Students

Our practice is a training practice. Our registrars are fully qualified doctors who have had experience solely in hospital medicine. They are invited to join the practice for a year to gain insight into the sort of medical problems encountered in general practice. When booking an appointment you may be asked if you would consult with one of our registrars. They are at all times encouraged to seek advice when required from the practice partners. The registrars are required to video some of their consultations to assist with their training. You will be advised if a session is to be videoed, and you have the right at the start and end of the consultation to withdraw consent for its use.

Doctors sometimes have medical students sitting in with them. You will be advised if this is the case when you attend. If you would prefer to see the doctor alone, please let the receptionist know.
