You can access general practice appointments on weekday evenings and weekends, at several locations in Milton Keynes. Speak to our care navigators about getting the right appointment for you.

Your appointment

However you choose to contact us, we may offer you a consultation:

  • by phone
  • face to face at the surgery
  • on a video call

Appointments by phone, video call or by text or email can be more flexible and often means you get help sooner.

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.

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

If you need help with your appointment

Please tell us:

  • if there’s a specific doctor, nurse or other health professional you would prefer to respond
  • if you would prefer to consult with the doctor or nurse by phone, face-to-face, by video call or by text or email

  • if you have any other access or communication needs

Home visits

If you need to see the doctor but are unable to get to the surgery, you will be able to talk to one of the doctors to discuss the problem and if appropriate arrange a home visit. This visit may be undertaken by a member of our paramedic team.

Please call the practice for a home visit.

You may have to leave a phone number and the doctor will phone you after surgery. It would help if you could phone before 10am.

Later calls which are not urgent may have to be held over until the next day.
