Local GPs are working together to offer patients better access to appointments in General Practice in Buckinghamshire, known as the ‘Enhanced Access’ Service. This means that you can now book an appointment in a practice local to you:

• Up until 8pm from Monday to Friday

• From 9am until 1pm on Saturday

• From 9am until 1pm on Sunday (at the FedBucks Improved Access Hub)

Chalfonts PCN Enhanced Access GP Surgeries:

Patients registered with any GP Surgery within the Chalfonts PCN will be able to access this service via the participating surgeries in their area. In the Southern Locality these surgeries are:

• The Hall Practice

• The Allan Practice

• The Misbourne Surgery

All appointments need to be pre-booked, either in advance or on the day.

How to book an Enhanced Access appointment

Contact your GP Surgery as normal. If you would like an Enhanced Access appointment, the administrative staff will tell you where clinics are being held on what day, and the times of the available appointments. A convenient appointment will be booked for you. If you use this service, it is very likely that you will be seen by a clinician from another surgery and not your own GP. The receptionist at your GP surgery will be able to provide details on this service to help you book an appointment.

This is NOT a walk in service – if you need urgent medical advice after 6.30pm, please phone NHS 111 or visit NHS 111 online. NHS 111 will enable you to talk to a GP and book an urgent GP appointment if necessary.
