Non-urgent advice: How to Make an Appointment
Appointments may be booked in several ways:
Online
Patients can book appointments up to 4 weeks in advance using online services.
By Phone
Patients can book an appointment by calling reception on 020 8904 3263.
In Person
Patients can visit the surgery and book an appointment with the receptionist.
Advance Booking
Bookable up to 2 months ahead, these provide choice and flexibility as to when and by whom you are seen. If these appointments are filled on a particular day the receptionist will look for an acceptable alternative.
A number of theses appointments are available to book online.
On the day (Urgent only)
Every day a limited number of urgent appointments are available. If there is no appointment to be seen at Preston Medical centre the Reception Team may offer you an appointment to be seen at one of the Brent GP Hubs by a GP.
At such short notice there is much less flexibility over the time of the appointment and choice of clinician.
Telephone Consultations
You can book telephone appointments with our GPs in advance for various issues such as ongoing medical problems, sick notes, medication changes, blood test results, investigation results and many other things to save time and your journey.
