Appointments

Lionwood Medical Practice appointment routes: urgent, routine and cancellation

Need Best route What matters
Urgent appointment today or tomorrow Phone 01603 437559 or visit reception Use Monday–Friday access. Tell reception what you need help with so the right clinician can be chosen.
Routine appointment within 4 weeks Appointment request form, phone, reception, or NHS account for some screening/vaccination booking Explain symptoms, duration, medication and whether phone, face-to-face, video, text or email response suits you.
Cancel or change appointment NHS account, SystmOnline, phone, or reply CANCEL to reminder text Cancel early so another patient can use the slot.
When practice is closed NHS 111 online or call 111 Use 999 for medical or mental health emergencies where life is at risk.

Norwich patient tip: if you need same-day help, contact early. If you wait until later in the afternoon, routine capacity may be tighter and the practice may direct you to NHS 111 if the problem cannot wait.
