Hoxton Surgery GP Appointment System
The Practice has introduced appointments that are bookable 24, 48, 72 hours and one week in advance. These appointments are also available to book online or via the automated telephone system.
Additionally, there will be some appointments available to book on the day for acute/urgent medical problems.
All routine appointments with a doctor are for 10 minutes and it’s usually one problem per appointment. If your problem is too difficult for 10 minutes you can ask for a double appointment when you book.
