Evening and Weekend Appointments

 More Convenient Access to GP Services

We understand that it can be difficult to attend appointments during standard working hours. To help make healthcare more accessible, our Primary Care Network (PCN) offers evening and weekend appointments for routine consultations and selected healthcare services.

Whether you work full-time, have caring responsibilities, attend school or college, or simply need greater flexibility, these extended access appointments provide more choice and convenience.

How Extended Access Works

Evening and weekend appointments are shared across the three practices within our PCN. Appointments are offered on a rotating basis, meaning clinics may take place at different practice sites depending on the day and time of your appointment.

Patients registered at any of the three PCN practices can be offered an appointment at one of the participating sites:

• The Leys Health Centre
• Temple Cowley Health Centre
• Donnington Health Centre

Appointment Availability

Extended access appointments are available:

- Weekday evenings

- Saturday mornings

Appointment times and locations vary and are subject to availability.

What Can Be Booked?
