When might this page not help you?
A website that mentions NHS care is not a place on the NHS list. NHS capacity is set by each practice’s contract and is often full; if three calls in a row end with no NHS places, widen the search to the next district, and after about six calls ask NHS 111 or the NHS Essex integrated care board for help. Opening hours were collected for only 2 of the 5 Leigh-on-Sea practices listing nhs treatment, and 1 of those lists Saturday hours, so this page cannot tell you who is open at weekends or in the evening. It does not show who is taking new NHS patients, current fees, or whether a clinician is on the GDC register.
What should you ask on the first call?
- Are you taking on new NHS patients in my group (adult or child)?
- If not, is there a waiting list and how long has it been?
- Which items would be NHS and which private? Please write that down.
- How do I get an urgent NHS appointment if I am in pain?
- What happens if I have a problem afterwards?
