Enhanced Access 

Local Saturday Appointments Available

GP practices across The Dengie and South Woodham Ferrers are working together to provide the right services at a convenient time. We’ve listened to feedback from people in our local area and are making changes to our appointments to deliver a better service for you.

The new way of delivering these appointments will give you:

Access to more healthcare professionals. This new service will be delivered by professionals including GPs, Advanced Nurse Practitioners (ANP's), Healthcare Assistants (HCA's), Practice Nurses, and Pharmacists. These staff are employed to work the weekend sessions and are not your usual staff found at the surgery during the week.

More choice about the type of appointment you want. These include a mixture of in-person face-to-face appointments and remote telephone appointments.

From Saturday 1 March 2024, additional appointments will be available from 9 am to 5 pm on Saturdays. 

These surgery sessions will operate in rotation out of:

Crouch Vale Medical Centre

William Fisher Medical Centre 

Dengie Medical Partnership at Tillingham

These appointments are 'book only' appointments.  Patients from this surgery can access appointments at any of the sites. To book one of these appointments please contact your surgery reception in the usual way.
