Sunderland Enhanced Access Service

If you can’t get an appointment with your GP or can’t get there during the day due to work or other commitments you can use the Enhanced Access Service.

Sunderland offers extra appointments seven days a week at your local out of hours site, alternatively it may be possible to arrange an appointment at another site across the city which your practice will arrange.

Get more information about the Sunderland GP Enhanced Access Service.

If you require urgent medical advice outside normal surgery hours, please contact 111 for advice.

If you need to see a doctor you will normally be asked to attend the Out of Hours Centre, which is based at Kidderminster Hospital. Terminally ill patients and those who are genuinely housebound will be visited at home. 

Please do not ask to see a doctor out of hours unless you genuinely cannot wait until the surgery re-opens.

Call 999 in an emergency. Chest pains and / or shortness of breath constitute an emergency.
