GP Extended Hours

Amersham, Chesham & Little Chalfont Enhanced Access Service

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 local practice:

  • Up until 8pm from Monday to Friday
  • On a Saturday
  • From 9am until 1pm on  Sunday (at one of the three FedBucks Improved Access Hubs located across the county)

Patients registered with any GP Surgery within Chesham and Little Chalfont PCN will be able to access this service via their registered surgery. 

In our network these sites are:

  • Little Chalfont Surgery
  • Gladstone Surgery
  • Watermeadow Surgery
  • The New Surgery
  • FedBucks Improved Access Hubs located at Wycombe Hospital, Stoke Mandeville Hospital and Threeways Surgery, Stoke Poges (Sundays and Bank Holiday weekends only).

All appointments need to be pre-booked in advance.  

How to book an Enhanced Access appointment

Ring your GP Surgery as normal. If you would like an Enhanced Access appointment, the reception staff will be able to inform you where clinics are being held, on what day, and the times of the available appointments, both face-to-face and telephone, they will book the appointment slot 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. However, a record of your consultation will be in your medical record.

This is NOT a walk in service – if you need urgent medical advice after 6.30pm, please phone NHS 111. NHS 111 will enable you to talk to a GP and book an urgent GP appointment if necessary. You can also use our local online symptom checker, Health Help Now (http://bucks.healthhelpnow.nhs.uk/to help to find the right service in Buckinghamshire for your health needs.
