How to Request an Appointment at Hawthorn Medical Practice

Hawthorn uses triage rather than assuming every patient needs the same clinician or appointment type.

Choose online, phone or reception

For a same-day appointment request Monday to Friday, the practice lists SystmOnline, its electronic contact route, telephone contact from 8am to 6:30pm, or visiting the surgery.

Explain the reason for the request

Reception may ask what you need help with. The practice says this information is used to choose the most suitable doctor, nurse or other health professional.

Tell the practice about preferences or access needs

You can say if you prefer a particular clinician, telephone or face-to-face consultation, need an interpreter, need communication support or would like a chaperone.

Follow the triage decision

The next step may be a GP, advanced practitioner, nurse, telephone consultation, face-to-face appointment or another suitable healthcare route.

Typical clinician appointment periods

The practice says GP, Advanced Nurse Practitioner and Advanced Clinical Practitioner appointments are normally available from 8:20am to 11:50am and 2:00pm to 5:00pm.

Practice nursing appointments

At Skegness, practice nursing team appointments are normally listed from 8:30am to 12:30pm and 1:30pm to 5:30pm.

Urgent same-day problem? If same-day appointments have already been allocated, the practice says patients with an urgent problem that cannot wait may request a duty-doctor telephone callback. Staff will need brief details so the request can be prioritised.

Online Services, NHS App and SystmOnline

Hawthorn separates simple online contact forms from account-based services.

FORM

Online contact form

The practice says its electronic contact service can be used for non-urgent appointment requests, updating details, asking about test results and administrative requests.

You do not need a patient account for this contact route.

NHS

NHS App / NHS account

Supported tasks include repeat prescriptions, viewing test results, seeing parts of your health record, checking or cancelling appointments and viewing vaccination information.

SYS

SystmOnline

The practice also uses SystmOnline. Its current setup guidance says patients first complete the registration process and verify identity before receiving login access.

Open Hawthorn online-services guidance

Repeat Prescriptions at Hawthorn Medical Practice

Hawthorn publishes several prescription-ordering routes, including a limited telephone prescription line.

APP

NHS App or SystmOnline

The practice describes the NHS account and SystmOnline as quick ways to order repeat medicines online, including outside surgery opening hours.

SLIP

Slip, post or SystemConnect

Patients can use the repeat slip from a previous prescription, send it by post or use the SystemConnect questionnaire from the practice website.

2–3

Telephone prescription line

The practice currently says repeat prescriptions may also be requested by phone on 01754 896350 between 2pm and 3pm.

Allow enough time. Hawthorn advises allowing at least 3–5 working days between ordering and collecting medicine from the pharmacy. Eligible Burgh Le Marsh dispensary patients are told repeat medication is normally ready three working days after ordering.

Test Results: When to Call Hawthorn

10:30

Phone after 10:30am

The practice asks patients to avoid the busy early-morning phone period and telephone for blood, urine, X-ray and other results after 10:30am.

LOCK

Confidentiality

Hawthorn states that results are released to the patient unless alternative arrangements have been agreed in writing.

Online services may also show supported results once they are available in your NHS account or SystmOnline record.

How to Register with Hawthorn Medical Practice

Hawthorn’s registration page uses the NHS online registration service and also keeps a paper option for people who need it.

Check the practice catchment

Hawthorn states that it can accept new patients only if they live within its practice area.

Open the official registration page

The page links to the NHS “Register with a GP surgery” service.

Complete the NHS registration form

Hawthorn states that you do not need proof of address, immigration status, photo ID or an NHS number to use the NHS online registration form.

Ask reception for paper registration if needed

Paper forms remain available from the surgery for patients who cannot or do not want to use the online service.

Open official registration guidance

Fit Notes and Sick Certificates

Hawthorn’s published guidance says you normally need a doctor’s fit note only when illness keeps you off work for more than seven calendar days. For shorter periods, self-certification normally applies.

If your employer asks for documentation sooner, check the employer’s own sickness process before requesting GP paperwork.

Evening and Weekend GP Appointments in Skegness

Hawthorn’s appointment page also describes extended GP access for patients registered with practices in the Skegness and Coast locality.

Extended access Published time How to access
Monday–Friday 6:30pm–8:00pm Pre-book through your own GP practice.
Saturday–Sunday 8:30am–4:45pm Pre-book through the practice where available.
When Hawthorn is closed Urgent care Use NHS 111 if the problem cannot wait but is not a 999 emergency.
The practice says the extended-access clinic is based at Skegness Hospital. These appointments are pre-booked; do not simply travel there expecting a walk-in GP appointment.

Hawthorn Medical Practice CQC Information

CQC currently displays Hawthorn Medical Practice with an overall rating of Requires improvement, based on the inspection carried out in April 2023 and report published on 12 July 2023.

Important context: the same CQC report states that the practice was taken out of special measures after inspectors recognised significant improvements. Because the displayed rating comes from the 2023 inspection, use the live CQC profile for any newer regulatory update rather than treating an older article as current inspection evidence.
