Unique patient decision hub: choose the right Leeds GP route in 60 seconds

This is a reusable patient tool. Start with your situation, then choose the safest route before calling, submitting AccuRx, emailing or travelling to either site.

I need help today

If symptoms are dangerous, call 999. If it is urgent but not life-threatening and the practice is closed, use NHS 111. During opening hours, contact the practice so the duty doctor triage system can decide whether you need advice, prescription or appointment.

I need a routine GP problem reviewed

Use AccuRx, telephone, reception or online services. Give enough detail so the patient care team can route you to a GP, community pharmacist, physiotherapist or another suitable service.

I need repeat medication

Order up to 7 days before it is due, allow 48 working hours for the surgery, and allow the pharmacy extra time to prepare it. Do not rely on same-day repeats.

I need test results

Results are normally reviewed by doctors before afternoon surgery. If phoning, call after 2pm because morning lines are busy with urgent appointments.

I need a fit note

You only need a doctor’s note if illness lasts more than 7 calendar days. Use online e-consultation where possible; new fit notes may need a consultation.

I need a home visit

Request as early as possible, preferably before 10am. Home visits are at clinician discretion and are for patients too ill or infirm to attend.

AccuRx online consultation: when to use it

The Modern General Practice page says Leeds City Medical Practice uses AccuRx so patients can submit a medical request or admin query. Medical queries are open during practice opening hours, while admin queries such as fit notes, test results and repeat prescriptions can be submitted 24/7. AccuRx is useful if your problem feels private, complex, or difficult to explain while waiting on the phone.

Adm

Admin query

The practice says it will endeavour to respond via text. Check your phone and make sure your number is up to date.

Safe

Do not enter medical information into random third-party forms. Start from the official practice site or the official AccuRx link.

24-hour automated phone service for appointments and prescriptions

The practice has introduced an automated telephone option that can help patients book, change, check or cancel GP appointments and order repeat prescriptions 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The service uses your date of birth and registered telephone number, and repeat prescription ordering requires a 6-digit PIN.

Automated taskWhat you needPractical note

SystmOnline, NHS App and access to medical records

Leeds City Medical Practice uses online services for tasks such as repeat medication and access to results.

Medical record access requires confidentiality and identity checks.

Leeds City Medical Practice repeat prescriptions and medication requests

The official medication page says patients can order medication online using SystmOnline, by emailing a request, or by posting a written request to the surgery. It clearly says repeat medication requests are not accepted over the phone. Patients can request medication up to 7 days before it is due, should allow 48 working hours for the surgery to send it electronically, and should allow the pharmacy 24 hours to prepare it.

Test results, blood tests, urine tests and x-ray results

The official test-results page says the practice receives blood, urine and x-ray results from Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust daily through a secure electronic link. Doctors normally review these results before the start of afternoon surgery. If results show that a prescription, appointment or further follow-up is needed, a member of the patient care team will contact you by phone or letter.

1
Ask who ordered the test.
GP-ordered and hospital-ordered tests often have different follow-up routes.

Fit notes, sick notes and SC2 self-certification

The official fit-note page says you only need a doctor’s note if you are unable to work and ill for longer than 7 calendar days. For shorter illness, your employer should provide an SC2 self-certificate form. The practice says it does not keep copies of the SC2 form to hand out.

Home visits: when to request one and when not to wait

The official home-visit page says patients who are too ill or infirm to get to the surgery can request a home visit. Requests should be made as early as possible, preferably before 10am. Home visits are at clinician discretion and may be handled by a doctor, matron, advanced nurse practitioner, district nurse or by telephone advice if that is more appropriate.

Reviews, CQC rating, Google feedback and patient experience

CQC lists Leeds City Medical Practice as Overall Good. The official feedback page also points patients to Google Reviews. When reading reviews, check dates and repeated themes rather than relying on one old comment, because appointment systems, online consultation routes, staffing and telephone access can change.
