How To See The Nurses or Healthcare Assistants
All nurse and healthcare assistant clinics are by appointment and can be arranged up to eight weeks in advance by ringing 020 8251 4200. When you phone you will be asked why you want to see the nurse or healthcare assistant. This is to assist us in preparing for the clinic and to make sure we have sufficient stock or to prepare any equipment that may be required during your consultation.
If you cannot keep your appointment please cancel it. This frees appointments for others and prevents waste of our time and NHS money. We see over 200 patients per weekday in surgeries and clinics. Those patients demand immediate appointments for non-urgent problems, without booking, create delays for doctors, staff and patients who have made an appointment. All serious cases and patients with genuinely urgent problems will always be seen. If you are unable to wait for a routine appointment, please give the receptionist brief details of your condition/illness to help make the appropriate arrangements.
For a list of services provided by our nursing team, please see the notice board in the waiting room.

Additional Staff
District Nurses
There is a district nurse team attached to the practice. They provide nursing care for patients of all age groups in their own home to patients who are housebound and need long term care, wound/ulcer dressing, insulin injections and care of patients who may be terminally ill.
The district nurses liaise with your doctor, other members of the healthcare team and social services to ensure the best possible care is provided. Your GP will have to refer you.
Community Midwife
The community midwives can be contacted on 020 8401 3171 at Croydon University Hospital for advice. We do have antenatal appointments at the practice for those expectant mothers who need to be seen by the GP and you will be told at what time during your pregnancy you need to see the GP.
