Tynemouth PATCHS Route Hub
If you searched for Tynemouth Medical Practice, first note this is the NHS GP surgery on Tynemouth Road in Tottenham, London. The practical question is usually: PATCHS, NHS App, phone, reception, pharmacy, blood-test centre, prescription route, fit note, test result, complaint or NHS 111?
This guide gives the official details inside the page first, then sends you to the correct official action link only when you know what to do.
What Do You Need from Tynemouth Medical Practice Today?
Choose the task first. This prevents using PATCHS when a pharmacy, NHS App, blood-test centre, hospital provider or NHS 111 is the better route.
GP appointment or symptoms
Use PATCHS, NHS App, phone or reception. The practice may offer phone, face-to-face or video consultation.
Repeat prescription
Use NHS App/NHS website 24/7, PATCHS Monday-Friday 8am-5pm, post or email. Repeat requests are not taken by phone.
Test results
View reviewed results in NHS App/NHS website or contact the practice by PATCHS, phone or in person. Reception can confirm whether results are back but cannot interpret them.
Fit note / sick note
You do not need a fit note for 7 calendar days or less. For more than 7 calendar days, request through PATCHS.
Register as patient
Use the NHS “Register with a GP surgery” service. You do not need proof of address, immigration status, ID or NHS number.
