Your appointment

Appointments are usually for ten minutes. Please inform the receptionist if you think you might need extra time.

However you choose to contact us, we may offer you a consultation:

  • by phone
  • face to face at the surgery
  • by text or email

Appointments by phone, text or email can be more flexible and often means you get help sooner.

If you need help when we are closed

When the practice is closed, you can still get help for urgent medical problems by calling 020 7226 9090. Your call will be redirected to the Islington i:HUB service, which provides same-day urgent GP care from 6:30pm to 8:00pm on weekdays, and all day on weekends and bank holidays.

At weekends, you can also contact the i:HUB team online between 8:00am and 5:00pm by completing a form here: https://islingtongpfederation.webgp.com/. Your request will be reviewed by a GP on the same day, and you may be offered a same-day appointment or advice from a clinician, or be directed to the most appropriate service for your needs.

If you would prefer to speak to someone or are unable to complete the online form, you can still call the number above. You will be connected to the i:HUB team, who can support you to complete the form if needed. All requests, whether made online or by phone, are assessed in the same way to ensure patients are seen based on clinical need.

Home Visits Notice

Visiting the surgery in person is usually always better than waiting on a doctor to come to your home. Home visits are for people too ill to come down to the surgery. Lack of transport is not a reason for a home visit. Please try and ring before 11:00am to discuss your needs if a home visit is required.
