Extended Access service is available on a Tuesday, Thursday and Friday evening and a Saturday morning. This is a pre-booked service only, available for people at work and those who are unable to attend during normal hours. Extended Access hours are evenings 18.30 - 20.30 and Saturday from 08.00 - 10.30

Rothwell & Desborough Healthcare Group are working closely with Burton Latimer Practice and Drylands Surgery to enhance services available to our patients.  From 1st April 2018 to 30th September we are engaging in a pilot programme offering extended access appointments outside of the practices normal opening hours.

From 1st April patients at the practice will be offered an appointment at either Drylands Surgery or Burton Latimer Surgery where they will be seen by a GP.  These extended access appointments are available Monday to Friday 6:30pm - 8:30pm and Saturday 8am - 10:30am.  Patients will not be able to request to see a specific clinician.

Patients will be asked for consent to share their medical record at the time of making the appointment to ensure any advice or prescriptions given are in line with existing medications, known conditions and past consultations.  Patients medical records will automatically updated.

Patient care is at the heart of the project but we also hope that the practices working together will help reduce unnecessary A&E visits and admissions.
