Opening Hours

Please note that phone lines open at 8.30am and close at 6.30pm. Please ring 0208 670 2414.

Reception Opening Times

From Monday to Friday we also offer appointments from 8am which are bookable in advance.  If the Practice is closed and you have an appointment outside of normal opening times, please enter the Practice via the backdoor - ring on the buzzer and a receptionist will come to the door.

Once a year we close the Practice for one day for Training purposes. This will normally happen in November and our out of hours service, SELDOC will deal with all urgent enquiries.

When We Are Closed

Our doctors are part of SELDOC (South East London Doctors on Call), a doctors' co-operative where GPs take turns to do night and weekend duties.

For urgent advice when the surgery is closed please telephone the surgery numbers 020 8766 8888 or 020 8670 2414. You will hear the message on our answerphone giving you the number of SELDOC (020 8693 9066). In the case of an acute collapse or dire emergency, please dial 999.

Please use SELDOC for urgent advice or emergencies only. The duty doctor will return your call and gather sufficient information to make a decision on how your problem should be managed. If the duty doctor decides you need a face-to-face consultation but you are well enough to travel to the SELDOC Centre at Dulwich Hospital, East Dulwich Grove, it is your responsibility to arrange and finance transport. Home visits are only carried out on medical grounds and are at the discretion of the duty doctor.

Alternatively, you can call the NHS Direct general advice line on 0845 4647 (calls are charged at local rates). NHS Direct is a phone service staffed by nurses and professional advisors, giving confidential healthcare advice and information 24 hours a day. They can advise you on what to do next. If your problem is more serious, NHS Direct can call out an ambulance on your behalf. The service also provides information on local health services (such as doctors, dentists or out-of-hours pharmacies) and self help or support organisations. NHS Direct can also be accessed via the internet at www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk.

The practice also runs a walk in Sexual Health Clinic on Wednesday evenings between 6.30 pm to 8.00 pm and on Saturday mornings between 9.30 am to 11.45 am.  The practice also offers extended opening hours on Wednesday evenings between 6.00 pm to 8.15 pm, Thursday evenings between 6.00 pm to 7.00 pm and pre-booked routine appointments Saturday mornings between 9.00 am and 10.30 am.
