I need help today

If symptoms are dangerous, call 999. If urgent but not life-threatening and the surgery is closed, use NHS 111. If it is GP-suitable and the practice is open, use the medical issue form or phone if online is difficult.

I need a routine appointment

Use the online form and say it is routine. Routine requests may be arranged within the next two weeks where appropriate. Asking for a specific clinician may mean a longer wait.

I need repeat medicine

Use the NHS App, NHS account or repeat prescription form. Do not phone repeat prescriptions because the practice says phone requests are not accepted for patient safety.

I need test results

Use NHS App or online request. The practice says online test-result requests are answered within 5 working days. Phone after 2pm if you need to ask by phone.

I need a fit note

If off sick 7 days or less, self-certification usually applies. If off more than 7 days, use the official fit-note request route. If hospital treated you, ask the hospital doctor first.

How to request a Heathcot Medical Practice appointment

The official appointments page says you can request an appointment using an online form, by phoning the surgery, or in person. All requests are reviewed and triaged. The practice uses the information you give to decide how quickly you need help, who is best to help, and whether an in-person appointment is needed.

1
Check urgency first.
Use 999 for emergencies. Use NHS 111 if the surgery is closed and you need urgent advice.
2
Use the online medical issue form if you can.
The form is available on the web and in the NHS App, usually between 8am and 4pm on weekdays.
3
Phone or visit if online is difficult.
The practice says it treats all requests the same way, no matter whether you use online form, phone or in-person route.
4
Say if it is urgent.
If you feel you need urgent help, say that clearly. The practice may offer same-day or next-day care where appropriate.
5
Give triage-friendly details.
Say when it started, whether it is getting worse, what you have tried, medication, allergies and what you are worried about.
6
Mention access needs.
Tell the practice if you need an interpreter, cannot come to the surgery, need communication support, or prefer a specific professional.
