Enhanced Access Service

BACK TO MAIN INDEX

Evening and Weekend Appointments

All patients across England can book appointments to see a GP in the evening and at weekends.

Haringey GP Federation works with the borough’s GP practices and primary care networks to provide an enhanced access service. This is so that patients can see a doctor, nurse, or other member of the practice team at a time convenient to them.

Appointments take place at hub clinics which are based in easily accessible neighbourhood health centres/GP Practices across Haringey.

“It really helps us workers, who may find it difficult attending appointments during the day. The option to see a GP over the weekend really helps with my life” - Service User

Any patient who is registered with a GP Practice in Haringey can use this service.
