How to request an NHS GP appointment at King’s Medical Practice
The official appointments page says you can request an appointment by phone, PATCHS online form, or by visiting the surgery and speaking with reception. The practice uses questions about your problem to decide whether you need an appointment, referral to another service, or advice.
| Route | Best for | What to prepare | When not to use |
|---|---|---|---|
| PATCHS online form | Secure appointment requests, sick notes, test-result questions and admin queries. | Symptoms, duration, medication, urgency, access needs and callback availability. | Do not use for life-threatening symptoms or immediate emergencies. |
| Phone: 01924 223909 | Patients who cannot use PATCHS, need a home visit, or need reception help. | Name, date of birth, phone number, one main problem and whether you need an interpreter or adjustment. | Do not phone routine reception instead of 999 if someone is seriously ill. |
| Reception visit | Patients who cannot access online/phone routes or need in-person admin support. | ID if needed, appointment reason and enough time before closing. | Check the official contact page before travelling if hours are uncertain. |
| NHS App / NHS account | Viewing appointments where visible, cancelling supported appointments, prescriptions and records. | NHS login details and current contact details. | Do not assume every GP appointment type is directly bookable in the app. |
| GP Care Wakefield extended access | Evening, weekend or bank-holiday appointments when available through the extended-hours service. | Exact site, time, clinician type and whether record sharing/consent is needed. | Do not assume it is at King Edward Street unless the practice confirms it. |
PATCHS response note: the official appointments page says PATCHS appointment requests will receive a response within 2 working days. If the issue is urgent and cannot safely wait, use phone, NHS 111 or 999 as appropriate.
Good appointment request wording
Access and communication needs
The official appointments page asks patients to tell the practice if they prefer a particular clinician, want phone/face-to-face/video, need an interpreter, or have other access or communication needs.
King’s Medical Practice opening hours
Opening hours should be checked on the official contact page before travelling.

The easiest routes are NHS account/NHS App, PATCHS, SystmOnline or Airmid. The practice says it does not take repeat prescription requests over the phone.

Use PATCHS for online prescription questions and requests where appropriate.
SystmOnline / Airmid
The prescriptions page lists SystmOnline and Airmid as repeat-prescription routes.
Prescription timing: the official page says you can usually collect your prescription from the pharmacy 3 to 5 working days after ordering. Urgent same-day supply may be possible for limited high-risk medicines, but the practice does not guarantee fast turnaround for all medicines.

Test results, fit notes and online medical records

Sick notes / fit notes
If you have been off sick for more than 7 days, request a sick note through PATCHS or by phone/visit from 10am to 6pm. For 7 days or less, employers should use self-certification.

Hospital-result note: the official test-results page says the practice cannot discuss results requested by hospital consultants or other specialists. Contact the hospital or specialist team for those results.
