Clerkenwell Medical Practice key details
Most important Clerkenwell-specific point: if you call or visit because you cannot use the online form, the practice says Care Navigators will ask questions and complete the eConsult form with you. Calling does not bypass triage.
Clerkenwell Medical Practice appointment routes
| What you need | Best first route | What to prepare |
|---|---|---|
| New GP problem | Use the online eConsult appointment form. | Symptoms, duration, severity, medicines, and whether the problem is worsening. |
| Cannot use online form | Call 020 7833 5906 or visit reception. | Care Navigators ask questions and complete the online form with you. |
| Need to cancel or reschedule | Use the appointment cancellation/rescheduling route or NHS App where available. | Cancel early so the slot can be offered to another patient. |
| Interpreter or BSL support | Tell reception when booking. | Give language/communication needs early so the practice can arrange support. |
| Out of hours | I:HUB, NHS 111 or 999 depending on severity. | Use 999 for life-threatening symptoms; do not wait for a GP reply. |
Practical tip: write one clear problem per request. The stronger your eConsult details are, the easier it is for the practice to choose phone advice, face-to-face review, pharmacist, nurse, text reply, I:HUB, 111 or emergency care.
How eConsult works before you contact Clerkenwell
This video explains eConsult in general. It is included because Clerkenwell Medical Practice uses online eConsult for appointment requests. Always follow the Clerkenwell website for current safety warnings and live availability.
Use it for suitable requests
eConsult can help with symptoms, admin questions and requests that do not need 999 emergency care.
Give useful clinical detail
Include symptom start date, severity, current medication, pregnancy status if relevant, and what changed.
Not for emergencies
Use 999 for life-threatening symptoms. Do not wait for an online consultation reply.
Clerkenwell Medical Practice and Islington I:HUB access
Local insider note: I:HUB is useful for evenings and weekends, but it is not a walk-in shortcut. Use the practice route so your request can be directed correctly and your GP records can be accessed where appropriate.
Clerkenwell repeat prescription rules
| Prescription need | Best route | Important note |
|---|---|---|
| Routine repeat prescription | NHS App or online form/eConsult. | The practice says routine/repeat requests are not accepted by phone. |
| Medication running low | Use online route early. | Do not wait until the last dose, especially before weekends or bank holidays. |
| Medication query | Use online consultation or ask the practice route. | Include medicine name, dose, side effects and how many days supply you have left. |
| Urgent medicine problem | NHS 111, pharmacy, or practice route depending on urgency. | If symptoms are severe or dangerous, use urgent care or 999. |
Medication safety tip: Clerkenwell is central London and services can be busy. Submit repeat prescription requests early and keep your nominated pharmacy details updated.
