Extra sessions are now offered at certain times on a rota basis only (varies from week to week). Early morning sessions start at 7.20am and Saturday morning sessions* (monthly) at 8.20am approximately.

All appointments for extended hours sessions must be pre-booked and are offered as routine appointments (10 minutes approximately). 

Improved Access

Local GPs are working together to offer patients better access to appointments in General Practice in Buckinghamshire, known as the ‘Improved Access’ Service. This means that you can now book an appointment in a practice local to you:

•  Up until 8pm from Monday to Friday
•  On a Saturday (your practice can confirm where and when this is possible)
•  From 9am - 1pm Sundays (at one of the three FedBucks Hubs across the county)

Patients registered with any GP Surgery within Amersham and Chesham will be able to access this service via the participating surgeries in their area. In Amersham and Chesham these surgeries are: Amersham Health Centre, Gladstone Surgery, Hughenden Valley Surgery, John Hampden Surgery, Prospect House, Rectory Meadow Surgery, The New Surgery.  FedBucks Improved Access Hubs are located at Wycombe Hospital, Stoke Mandeville Hospital and Threeways Surgery, Stoke Poges (Sundays and Bank Holiday weekends only).

All appointments need to be pre-booked in advance.  Ring your GP Surgery as normal.

If you would like an Improved Access appointment, the reception staff will tell you where clinics are being held on what day, and the times of the available appointments. A convenient appointment will be booked for you. If you use this service, it is very likely that you will be seen by a clinician from another surgery and not your own GP. The receptionist at your GP surgery will be able to provide details on this service to help you book an appointment.
