Evenings/Weekends

Enhanced Access is currently provided by the Malling Primary Care Network (PCN). You can now see a GP or other healthcare professional during:

• weekday evenings between 6.30pm and 8.00pm
• Saturdays and Sundays/Bank Holidays

These appointments offered could be:

• At your registered practice, Thornhills Medical Practice
• At another local GP practice who is part of the Malling PCN (Phoenix Medical Practice, Snodland Medical Practice, Wateringbury Surgery, West Malling Group Practice)
• At the Malling PCN base located within Larkfield Health Centre
• At another local NHS service - such as a General Practice Hub

What type of appointments will be available?

Evening appointments between 6.30pm to 8pm Monday to Friday will be offered by the Malling PCN. These appointments will be offered by a range of clinical professionals. 

On Saturdays, a clinical professional from the Malling PCN will be available between 8.00am to 12.00pm at a practice in your local area (times may vary).

On Sundays and Bank Holidays a GP will be available between 9.00am to 12.30pm at a hub in Tonbridge or Maidstone.

Who can book these appointments?

Enchanced Access appointments are available for all patients registered at Practices who are members  of the Malling PCN. This means that patients can be seen by a clinical professional 7 days a week, 52 weeks of the year. It will be unlikely that you will be seen by your normal GP and you may have to go to a different surgery to your registered practice for these appointments.

How can I book an appointment? 

In order to book these appointments, you contact your surgery reception staff as normal. You will not be able to phone the reception staff on Saturdays, Sundays / Bank Holidays or between 6.30 pm to 8.00 pm Monday to Friday.
