Decision hub: GP, nurse, pharmacy, online services, NHS 111 or 999?
Call 999 now
Use for chest pain, stroke signs, severe breathing difficulty, collapse, heavy bleeding, seizure not stopping, severe allergic reaction, overdose, serious injury or someone not responding.
Use GP appointment route
Use for ongoing symptoms, urgent same-day problems, long-term condition concerns, referrals, test-result follow-up, medication reviews and problems that need a clinician assessment.
Use practice nurse route
The practice says nurses are qualified to deal with many conditions and patients may be seen more quickly. Ask reception if nurse, HCA or GP is best.
Use Pharmacy First
Local pharmacies can advise on common conditions such as cough, cold, earache, sore throat, hay fever, thrush, teething, head lice, athlete’s foot and sprains/strains.
Use online services
Useful for online appointment booking, repeat prescriptions and medical record/test result access where enabled. Ask reception if you need access set up.
Use NHS 111
Use when the surgery is closed and the issue is urgent but not life-threatening. NHS 111 can direct you to out-of-hours GP, walk-in centre, minor injuries, A&E, emergency dentist or pharmacy.
Woodhouse and Chandos: two Leeds sites, one practice
| Site | Address | Best patient use |
|---|---|---|
| Woodhouse Medical Practice | Woodhouse Health Centre, Cambridge Road, Leeds, LS6 2SF | Main site. Use this address for general practice details unless your appointment says Chandos. |
| Chandos Medical Centre branch | 123 Lidgett Lane, Leeds, LS8 1QR | Branch site with shorter opening. Confirm before travelling because not open full days all week. |
| Phone | 0113 221 3510 | Use the same main practice phone for appointment and branch questions. |
| Test result line | 0113 295 3510 | Use only for result queries during the official result windows. |
Wrong-site warning: do not assume every appointment is at Cambridge Road. Chandos is a separate branch on Lidgett Lane, and the opening pattern is different.
