Evening and Weekend GP Practice Appointments

Evening and Weekend GP Practice Appointments

Did you know that Primary Care Sheffield provide a range of NHS urgent and routine healthcare services on weekday evenings and at weekends through six ‘satellite hubs’ across Sheffield?

All sites are existing GP surgeries and are staffed by Sheffield GPs and other practice staff.

The services available include: urgent appointments with a GP, and practice nurse appointments for the following routine services:

  • Blood pressure checks
  • Removal of stitches
  • Dressing changes (patients must bring their new dressings with them to the appointment)
  • Asthma reviews/checks
  • Diabetes checks/reviews
  • Ear syringing
  • Smears
  • Blood tests

They also offer appointments with a physiotherapist for assessment of Musculoskeletal pain. Four of the hub sites were inspected by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in late 2017 and have all received a good rating.

The Satellite Hubs

Opening Times
Monday – 6pm to 10pm
Tuesday – 6pm to 10pm
Wednesday – 6pm to 10pm
Thursday – 6pm to 10pm
Friday – 6pm to 10pm
Saturday – 10am to 6pm (Flowers and Burncross closed)
Sunday – 10am to 6pm (Crookes and Woodhouse Hubs are open 10am to 2pm. Flowers and Burncross closed)

Booking an Appointment
You can book appointments for these services through your usual GP practice or by contacting 111 when your GP practice is closed. Your GP practice will be able to view all available appointments and book you in. Your appointment will be at one of the satellite hubs (which are all existing GP practices). Appointments are also available on Bank Holidays, however they may not be available at all sites.

Disability Sheffield is a forward-thinking, energetic organisation doing a lot of positive work in Sheffield. I have no doubt they will continue to do so for a long time to come.

A fantastic presentation thought provoking and good questions from the floor around promoting this film/message to the general public not just professionals.

When I moved to Sheffield nearly five years ago it was my "go to" organisation. I expect it to stay that way. All the staff and volunteers seem to pull out little gems of effort that disabled people like me couldn't do without. Professionally and personally - I love em :)
