Appointments are available in the evening and at weekends – please call reception to book an evening appointment at the practice or a Saturday appointment at our local linked practice – Cassidy Road Medical Centre (651A Fulham Road, London, SW6 5PX). Alternatively, please visit 111 online or call 111 to be directed to the help you need.
Our practice is part of a small group of practices called a Primary Care Network. We are working with other local GP practices to provide out of hours appointments in the evenings and on Saturday’s. Working together means we can provide more local services to you. These evening and weekend appointments may take place by phone, video, or face-to-face depending on clinical need. You may be offered an appointment at your GP practice, at Cassidy Road Medical Centre or another local NHS service.
If you would like an evening appointment at the practice or a Saturday appointment at Cassidy Road Medical Centre with a GP or other healthcare professional, you can book it from this practice.
The receptionist will ask you if you consent to record sharing. By consenting to record sharing, if you have a Saturday appointment, this will enable Cassidy Road Medical Centre to access your records so the GP or other healthcare professional can provide you with appropriate care. Without record sharing, the GP or healthcare professional will still see you but it may impact their ability to care for you appropriately.
You will receive a text message (if we have a mobile number for you – if not please provide us with one) confirming the time, date, the practice name and postcode. To cancel your appointment, please contact the practice.
If it’s not urgent you can also use the online consultation form on the practice website, which will be responded in practice hours.

Will I see my own GP and/or nurse?
If you would prefer to see your usual GP or practice nurse, please book an appointment with your usual practice during their normal opening hours.
If you are happy to see another GP or health professional from your own practice at a time that is more convenient, then you can book an appointment at your practice for a morning or evening slot. [amend accordingly]
For appointments on Saturday’s, you will be seen by experienced GPs or other health professionals at Cassidy Road Medical Centre but you will not be seen by your own GP or nurse.
Will the GP I see have access to my medical record during my appointment?
Your medical record will, with your consent, be available to the GP or health professional that sees you, to ensure that they have the information they need to give you the best possible care.
