About the Extended Access service for Rural Warwickshire North Primary Care Network 

Hazelwood Group Practice, Dordon and Polesworth Group Practice, Satis House Medical Practice, Pear Tree Surgery and Chancery Lane Surgery now offer a mixture of telephone and face to face appointments based on clinical need with a GP and Nurse in the evening and at weekends to ensure that patients are able to be seen within Primary Care.

Appointments with Doctors are for people requiring routine or same day GP appointments but who are unable to attend their GP during normal opening hours.  However, the following patients should not be booked into Extended Access at the present time:

  • Medication review (the service requires a more complete access to patient records to undertake these)
  • Long term mental health conditions including psychosis
  • Acutely suicidal patients
  • Acute chest pain that sounds like a Myocardial Infarction (MI)
