Extended Access Service
If you require an appointment on a Saturday, and we are not open, you may be offered an appointment at another surgery in the area. If you accept an appointment at another surgery we will enable the GP at that surgery to have electronic access to your records for your appointment.
GP appointments are now available in your area during the evenings and at the weekend. To book an appointment, contact your practice.
Home Visits
If possible please try to telephone reception before 10:30 if you require an urgent same day home visit.
01275 350666 /335680
Alternatively if your home visit request is routine, please complete an AccuRx request form and submit. We will get back to you within 4-days.
A doctor or nurse, or our paramedic may phone you back before making a visit, as it may be that your problem can be dealt with by telephone advice, or that it would be more appropriate to send a different type of clinician, or indeed arrange a hospital attendance.
Home visits are only available for patients who are housebound because of illness or disability.
Please remember that several patients can be seen in the practice in the time that it takes to make one home visit. There are also better facilities for examining and treating patients at the surgery.
Emergency calls and urgent requests will be accepted at any time.
Text Reminder Service
We have a texting service which allows you to receive confirmation and reminders about your appointments.
To have this service you will need to register by completing a consent form.
Please remember to update your contact details with us when you change address, telephone numbers and email address.
Pharmacy Referrals
We now have access to an experienced Pharmacy team at Smartpharm who are able to diagnose and treat many conditions, they are also able to prescribe antibiotics. We may therefore refer you to Smartpharm if appropriate.
Multi-disciplinary team
We are lucky at Clevedon Medical Centre to have access to a wide range of experienced professionals including a physiotherapist who is able to diagnose musculoskeletal problems, mental health practitioners and pharmacists (experiecned in managing blood pressure, cholesterol and more).
Minor Ilness
Patients contacting about a 'minor illness' (e.g upper respiratory tract infections, rashes, muscular/ joint aches or pains, simple ear infections or UTIs) will be provided with a minor illness appointment. These appointments are with Advanced Care Practitioners (who may be a nurse of a paramedic by background) or Physician Associates who are able to diagnose and prescribe; more comples cases will be discussed with a GP if necessary. This leaves GPs free to see more complex presentations. If you feel your problem is more complex please ask for a GP appointment.

Reception Team
We aim to answer calls as quickly as possible, however at busy times you may have to wait and your call will be put in a queue. If your call is not urgent please be advised to call us after 10:30 when we know the telephone lines will be less busy.
In case of a medical emergency dial 999 for an ambulance.
Please avoid phoning on Monday morning if possible unless you are requesting an appointment as this is our busiest day.
GP appointments
Please complete an AccuRx Request for all routine appointments (we will contact you back within 4-days). This new system avoids the 'morning rush' which invariably results in patients waiting on the phone for long periods or in some cases, not being able to get through to us at all. It also enables us to allocate you the most appropriate appointment (telephone or face-to-face).
The AccuRx system also allows us to give you an appointment with the GP you normally see. Healthcare is best delivered by the GP you know and trust the most, particulaly if your needs are more complex. If you have an ongoing medical problem, please make sure you ask to speak to the same doctor in order to maintain continuity of care.
We are also able to provide video consultations if needed, and can request photos from you through your mobile phone should you find this easier than coming into the surgery.
