Opening Hours

We offer later appointments on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings - please ask about these.  Our reception is not fully open during these later appointments.

Extended access

Why we are improving access

Public satisfaction with general practice remains high, but in recent years patients have increasingly reported, through the GP Patient Survey, more difficulty in accessing services including a decline in good overall experience of making an appointment in general practice.

Evening and weekend appointments

Beacon Medical, in collaboration with several other local practices, now offers appointments in the evenings from 1830-2000hrs and at weekends 0800-1200hrs as well as on all English bank holidays. 

These appointments are normally held at Clee Medical Centre, 323 Grimsby Road, DN35 7XE and will be staffed by clinicians from any one of the 13 practices who have grouped together to provide this service.  Therefore, you may not be seen by someone you already know.  The clinicians will have access to your full medical record and will ask you to consent to allowing them to look at it before they start the consultation.

Appointments are available for GPs, nurses and health care assistants.  If you have an extended access appointment for a blood test or dressing, you will be asked to take the blood form/dressing with you - our receptionist will advise when you book.

How To Book

To book one of these appointments, please contact our reception team in the usual way and ask for an extended access appointment.  Appointments must be booked in advance.
