How to Book a GP Appointment at Brunswick Park Medical Practice

The surgery offers three published routes for routine appointments: NHS App, online eConsult and telephone reception. Patients should choose the route according to urgency, the type of help needed and whether they can use digital services.

Option 1

Telephone reception

Call 020 8368 1568 during opening hours. Explain the reason for requesting help and whether it is urgent.

The receptionist may ask relevant questions to help arrange the appropriate response.

Option 2

NHS App

Open the NHS App, sign in and check the GP appointments options available for your registered surgery.

What you can book directly depends on the appointment slots and functions made available by the practice.

NHS App guidance

Option 3

Online eConsult

Use the practice’s eConsult service for non-urgent symptoms, advice requests and suitable administrative enquiries.

The online service accepts requests during Monday–Friday opening hours, excluding bank holidays.

Official eConsult information

Urgent appointments: what should you do?

The practice’s patient charter states that urgent medical requests should be made by telephone or by speaking directly to reception. Patients should not rely on the online system for urgent problems.

Before calling reception: Be ready to explain the main problem, when it started, any important change in symptoms, your contact details and any communication or accessibility needs. Reception may arrange an appointment, ask a clinician to review the request or direct you to another suitable service.

Request an Appointment Through eConsult: Step by Step

Brunswick Park Medical Practice offers eConsult for non-urgent online requests. The practice says patients can submit consultations Monday to Friday from 8am to 6:30pm. It closes for submissions outside these hours, at weekends and on bank holidays.

Open the official online contact page
Go to Brunswick Park Medical Practice — Contact Us Online. Read the restrictions on urgent problems and submission hours.
Follow the eConsult link
Select the practice’s eConsult service and choose the appropriate medical or administrative enquiry route displayed.
Describe your request
Provide the patient-identification and contact information requested. Explain the main problem clearly, including relevant symptoms, dates or administrative details. Do not include unnecessary information.
Review and submit
Check the answers, follow the submission instructions and note any confirmation. A successfully submitted request is not automatically a booked GP appointment.
Follow the practice’s response
The team may provide advice, ask for further information, direct you to another service or offer an appropriate appointment. Keep your stated contact method available.

Online form closed or unavailable? Routine enquiries can be made when the service reopens, or you can telephone reception during its published hours. If your problem becomes urgent, do not wait for eConsult to reopen; use an appropriate urgent-care route.

Evening and Weekend GP Appointments in Barnet

Brunswick Park Medical Practice participates in local enhanced-access arrangements. Patients may be offered pre-booked appointments at participating Barnet sites when their usual surgery is closed.

Primary Care Network enhanced access

The practice describes routine, pre-booked appointments during weekday evenings and on Saturdays from 9am to 5pm.

Appointments may be in person or remote and can involve doctors, nurses or pharmacists.

The practice also publishes these hub service hours:

Monday–Friday: 6:30pm–8pm
Weekends and bank holidays: 8am–8pm

Hub appointment telephone: 020 3948 6809.

These services are not the same as ordinary surgery opening hours. Appointment availability, eligible services and venues depend on the particular network or hub. Confirm the location and appointment arrangements when booking; do not assume the surgery building is open on Saturdays.

Repeat Prescriptions at Brunswick Park Medical Practice

The surgery asks patients to allow three working days (72 hours) to process repeat prescription requests. It does not accept repeat prescription orders by telephone.

Order using the NHS App

Sign in to the NHS App or your NHS account.
Open the repeat-prescriptions section.
Select the medication you need from the available repeat list.
Check your nominated pharmacy.
Submit and check the request status where available.

Official NHS App information

Order through practice online services

Open the practice’s repeat prescription page.
Follow its online-services instructions.
Sign in to the appropriate service.
Identify the required repeat items.
Submit the request and allow the published processing time.

Official repeat-prescription instructions

When should you order? The practice advises patients to request repeat medicine when they have approximately 10 working days of supply remaining, allowing time for approval, collection and pharmacy dispensing. Do not assume a same-day supply is possible.

Why might a prescription be delayed or declined?

Medication review overdue

The practice may require monitoring or a medication review before issuing further treatment. A GP or clinical pharmacist may conduct the review, sometimes by telephone or through review of your records.

One-off medication

Medicine previously prescribed for short-term use may not be on your repeat list. Speak to the surgery to clarify whether another clinical assessment is required.

Hospital medication changes

The practice requires the relevant specialist information before changing prescriptions. If a hospital specialist has just changed your medication, discuss the initial supply with that team rather than assuming the GP can immediately issue it.

Travelling abroad

Explain your travel dates when requesting medicines. The practice says it may supply up to three months in appropriate holiday circumstances, subject to clinical and prescribing rules.

If you have run out of essential medication and cannot reach your GP, NHS 111 may be able to direct you to emergency medicines support. Pharmacists can also advise on appropriate options.

Prescription charges in England depend on current NHS rules and exemptions. Check NHS prescription charges and exemptions rather than relying on an old quoted fee.

How to Register as a Patient at Brunswick Park Medical Practice

New patients should first check whether their address falls inside the practice’s catchment area. The surgery provides an online registration route from its official new-patient page.

Check your postcode and catchment area
Open Brunswick Park’s registration page. Select the boundary-check link and follow the postcode eligibility instructions.
Start the registration form
If you live within the boundary and registration is available, follow the New Patient Registration Form link from the official practice page.
Complete your personal information
Prepare your name, date of birth, address, contact details, previous GP information where applicable and any other details requested by the form. Your NHS number is helpful but is not required for GP registration.
Submit and confirm registration
Check your information carefully before submission. The practice will process the registration and notify you through its normal process. If you receive no confirmation, contact reception to check the status.

Do you need ID or proof of address? NHS England guidance says patients do not need photographic ID, proof of address, an NHS number or proof of immigration status simply to register with a GP. The practice may ask for additional information where legitimately needed to identify or match records, but inability to provide routine documents should not automatically prevent registration.

Temporary patients

If you are staying in the area temporarily, NHS guidance allows temporary GP registration for up to three months, subject to the surgery’s arrangements. Contact reception to explain how long you will be in the area and what care you need.

Can you choose your GP?

Registered patients are allocated a named accountable GP. However, the practice says patients may book with other GPs and can discuss their preferred doctor with reception, subject to availability.

How to Get Test Results from Brunswick Park Medical Practice

The surgery says it contacts patients when reviewed results indicate further tests or treatment are needed. Patients can also view available results through their NHS account or online services, or contact the surgery after the results have been reviewed by a doctor.

Digital route

NHS App

Online route

Patient Access

Patients with the appropriate online access can check available results using the practice’s supported online-services account.

Reception route

Phone or visit after 4pm

The practice asks patients to telephone 020 8368 1568 or visit reception after 4pm to ask about reviewed results.

Need clarification? Reception may be able to tell you whether a result has been reviewed, but clinical interpretation may require a GP or another appropriate professional. If symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical advice rather than assuming that no contact means no further action is needed.

Official practice test-results procedure

Request a Fit Note or Sick Note

A fit note is usually relevant when an employee has been ill and off work for more than seven consecutive calendar days, including weekends and bank holidays.

Seven days or fewer

You normally self-certify your sickness. Your employer may ask you to complete a self-certification form such as SC2.

More than seven days

The practice directs patients to request a fit note using the administration section of its eConsult system.

How to make a fit-note request

Open the official sickness-certificate page.
Follow its eConsult administration link.
Select the appropriate fit-note or administrative request route.
Enter the dates and other information requested.
Submit and follow any instructions for clinical review or further assessment.

A fit note cannot be guaranteed simply by submitting a form. The responsible healthcare professional must determine whether the certificate is appropriate.

Blood Tests, Home Visits and Appointment Changes

Blood test appointment

The practice says blood tests may be booked at the surgery or participating PCN hub sites. If the blood test is not booked at the surgery, remember to collect the required blood form from reception as instructed. Local hospital booking details may also appear on your blood-test form.

Home visit

The practice asks housebound patients needing a home visit to telephone reception before 10am. A clinician assesses whether a home visit is medically necessary and decides its urgency. A home visit is not simply an alternative to attending for convenience.

Cancel an appointment

Give as much notice as possible. The practice accepts cancellations by telephone, an online cancellation route or the NHS App where available, so the appointment can be offered to someone else.

Blood pressure checks

The practice asks visiting patients to use its POD machine to check blood pressure and weight, where appropriate. Ask reception if you need help using the equipment.

Official blood-test, home-visit and cancellation guidance

Clinics and Healthcare Services at Brunswick Park

The practice provides more than routine GP appointments. Its official services directory includes several locally relevant clinics and support programmes.

Dementia review clinics

The practice offers a holistic annual dementia review for eligible patients, covering medication, physical and mental health and wider support.

The published clinic information also describes support from dementia advisers and social prescribers. If an eligible patient has not received an invitation, contact reception.

Long-term condition reviews

The practice runs structured reviews for conditions including diabetes, hypertension, kidney disease, asthma, COPD and cardiovascular problems.

Eligible patients may be contacted for checks, tests, care planning and follow-up appointments.

Cervical screening

Cervical screening appointments can be requested through the practice’s published booking routes.

Patients who need a longer appointment, a female clinician, a chaperone or other adjustments can discuss this with the team in advance.

Childhood and baby care

The practice lists childhood immunisations and eight-week baby checks. It says parents are contacted directly to arrange the eight-week baby-check appointment.

Contraception and vaccinations

The surgery lists contraception services and vaccination clinics. Patients can ask reception which appointment route applies to their needs.

Travel advice and private reports

The practice offers travel advice and some vaccinations, with an eConsult enquiry route. Private medical reports and driver medicals may also be requested, with any applicable charges confirmed by the practice.

What happens during a long-term condition review?

For eligible patients, the practice describes a care process beginning with checks and tests, followed by results and a personalised care plan. Follow-up reviews may take place several months later, depending on clinical need.

The team contacts eligible patients by text, telephone or letter. Let reception know if you need an interpreter or other support to attend.

Complaints, Patient Feedback and CQC Information

If you need to raise a concern about your care or a service experience, use the surgery’s feedback and complaints procedure. The practice also offers the NHS Friends and Family Test for patient feedback.

The practice website displays a CQC rating of Good. The publicly available CQC location profile has historical inspection information, including a report published in February 2017 and a July 2023 monitoring review. It also notes a change of service provider, so use the live CQC record for the most current regulatory position rather than treating an old inspection date as a recent inspection.

Feedback or complaint

Open the practice’s feedback page, choose the complaint or feedback route and follow the stated instructions. Keep relevant dates, contact details and a clear description of your concern ready.
