Enhanced Access Services Posted or Updated on 20 Dec 2023

Access to Primary Care Services outside of traditional GP opening hours is changing.

On the 30th September the GP Extended Access Hubs are closing and as of 1st October 2022, the new Primary Care Network Enhanced Access Service will begin.

This new service will offer telephone and face to face appointments with either a GP or Nurse and these appointments will be booked via your GP Practice and you may be offered an appointment at another practice within our Primary Care Network.

Our Primary Care Network is called Riverview Health PCN and consists of the following practices:

Conway PMS (44 Conway Road, Plumstead, SE18 1AH)

Ferryview Health Centre (Valentine Health Partnership - 25 – 27 John Wilson Street, Woolwich, SE18 6PZ)
