Address
1 Worsall Road, Yarm, Cleveland / North Yorkshire, TS15 9DD. Use the full address in maps so you do not confuse it with another “Yarm” healthcare listing.
Phone number
Call 01642 745800 for practice contact, urgent appointment triage, home visits, registration help, medication queries and reception support.
Reception hours
NHS lists reception opening as Mon 8am–6pm, Tue 8am–noon and 1pm–6pm, Wed–Fri 8am–6pm, weekends closed. Re-check before travelling.
New patients
The NHS profile shows the surgery is currently accepting new patients. The practice still confirms eligibility using your address and catchment details.
Online requests
Routine clinical requests can be submitted through SystmConnect and triaged by the team. Urgent queries should not be submitted through SystmConnect.
Emergency rule
Do not use routine GP routes for emergency symptoms. Use NHS 111 for urgent non-emergency help and 999 for life-threatening symptoms.
Most useful Yarm-specific point: routine and urgent requests follow different routes. For routine clinical appointments, use SystmConnect or NHS App/online options where suitable. For urgent GP help during opening hours, call the practice so you can be added to the telephone triage list.

5-step Yarm Medical Practice workflow before you call or submit a request
This step-by-step workflow helps real patients avoid the most common GP access delays: using the wrong route, writing vague symptoms, waiting too long for urgent care, or travelling without checking live hours.
Decide if it is emergency, urgent or routine
Use NHS 111 online for urgent non-emergency help and call 999 for life-threatening symptoms. Do not submit emergency symptoms through routine GP online forms.
Use the official appointment route
Start from the official Yarm Medical Practice appointments page. Routine requests can use SystmConnect; urgent requests should be phoned to the practice.
Write one clear problem with enough triage detail
Include symptoms, when they started, what changed, medicines, allergies, pregnancy status if relevant, red flags, access needs and when you can take a call.
Use the correct admin page
Use the official prescription page, test results page, or new patient page instead of sending every task as an appointment request.
Before travelling, confirm hours, closure notices and map
Check the NHS opening-hours page and the official practice contact page before travelling, especially on Tuesdays, bank holidays or training days.
How to request an NHS GP appointment at Yarm Medical Practice
Yarm Medical Practice separates routine and urgent appointment access. Routine clinical appointment requests can be made through SystmConnect and triaged by the team. Urgent appointment requests should be made by calling the practice so you can be added to the telephone triage list.
| Route | Best for | What to prepare | When not to use |
|---|---|---|---|
| SystmConnect routine request | Non-urgent clinical questions and routine appointment needs. | One clear problem, duration, medication, photos if logged in and availability. | Do not use for urgent symptoms or emergencies. |
| NHS App | Limited routine appointments, repeat prescriptions, test results and records where enabled. | NHS login and identity access. | Do not assume all appointment types are bookable directly. |
| Phone 01642 745800 | Urgent GP triage, home visit requests, access support or if online routes are unsuitable. | Name, date of birth, symptoms, urgency, medicines and callback number. | Do not phone routine reception instead of 999 for life-threatening symptoms. |
| Enhanced access | Pre-booked evening/weekend GP, nurse or healthcare assistant appointments. | Ask reception if enhanced access is suitable and where the appointment will be held. | Not for emergencies; may be at a hub rather than Yarm surgery. |
| Pharmacy First | Some common minor illnesses such as sore throat, ear infection, sinusitis, shingles, impetigo, insect bites and eligible uncomplicated UTI. | Age, symptoms, medicines, allergies and pregnancy status if relevant. | Use GP, 111 or 999 if symptoms are severe, complex or worsening. |
Urgent appointment requests
If you think you need to be seen urgently, call the practice. The official page says you will be added to the telephone triage list and a doctor will contact you by phone; a face-to-face appointment will be arranged if needed.
Routine appointment requests
For routine clinical issues, complete the SystmConnect questionnaire. The practice says the request is triaged by a dedicated team and they will contact you with a suitable appointment.
Home visit rule: call 01642 745800 and select option 1 as early as possible in the day. A doctor will telephone before a home visit is guaranteed. Home visits are only appropriate for patients who cannot attend the surgery in person.
What to write or say when contacting Yarm Medical Practice
Strong request example
Weak request example
This is too vague. It does not tell the triage team what is wrong, whether the issue is urgent, whether a pharmacist/nurse/GP is most suitable, or whether NHS 111/999 is safer.
Why this helps: appointment teams route requests based on urgency, symptom details and the most suitable clinician. Clear wording reduces back-and-forth and helps avoid using routine online forms for urgent problems.
Yarm Medical Practice opening hours
The NHS profile lists Yarm Medical Practice reception opening times as Monday 8am to 6pm, Tuesday 8am to noon and 1pm to 6pm, Wednesday 8am to 6pm, Thursday 8am to 6pm, Friday 8am to 6pm, and closed Saturday/Sunday. The official contact page also notes a Tuesday 12:00pm–1:00pm staff-training closure. Always check live official notices before travelling.

The prescription page explains that NHS App and SystmOnline accounts are useful for 24/7 repeat ordering, while the online form can be used where a login is not available.
NHS App

If you cannot use online services, the practice says you can complete a written request by coming to the practice and speaking to reception.
Open official prescription pagePrescription delay prevention: include medicine name, strength, dose, how many days you have left, nominated pharmacy and any missing hospital paperwork. The practice says it cannot prescribe requests from other services, such as hospital discharge, without appropriate documentation.
Emergency medication requests
The practice prescription page lists specific emergency medication categories and says it cannot accommodate every “urgent” prescription request. Buy over-the-counter medicines where appropriate until your prescription is available.
Electronic Prescription Service
EPS lets the GP send your prescription electronically to a nominated pharmacy or dispenser. This is useful if you usually collect medicines from the same place.
Test results, sick notes, letters and GP records
Test results
Once reviewed by a clinician, results are usually available through SystmOnline or the NHS App. Blood tests are often ready in about 5 working days, urine tests within about 7 working days, scans may take a few weeks, and cervical screening results are normally posted within 6–8 weeks.
Open test results pageSick notes / fit notes
For a first sick note, the practice says you will usually need a telephone appointment. Repeat sick notes can be requested through SystmConnect, phone or reception, but the GP may still need to review you.
Open sick notes pageGP records and NHS App
The NHS App can help with appointment management, repeat prescriptions, viewing GP records securely, checking symptoms and urgent-help guidance where connected.
Open NHS App guidanceResults safety note: the practice says it will contact you if results need further action, but you should also check results yourself. If you cannot access them online and the expected timeframe has passed, call after 2pm Monday to Friday.

Common Yarm Medical Practice mistakes to avoid
Using SystmConnect for urgent symptoms
The practice says urgent queries should be phoned to 01642 745800, not submitted through SystmConnect.
Calling without clear symptoms
Prepare symptoms, duration, medication, allergies, urgency and callback availability before contacting the practice.
Forgetting Tuesday closure
The contact page notes a Tuesday 12pm–1pm staff-training closure. Check current notices before travelling.
Ordering prescriptions too late
Use NHS App, SystmOnline or online form early; not every urgent prescription request can be accommodated.
Assuming home visits are automatic
A doctor will telephone before a home visit is guaranteed, and visits are only appropriate for patients who cannot attend in person.
Using GP routes for emergencies
Call 999 for life-threatening symptoms and NHS 111 for urgent non-emergency help when unsure.
Registering without checking catchment
The practice confirms eligibility using your address. Check the accepted towns/areas and ask reception if unsure.
Not cancelling appointments
Cancel through appointment reminder link, phone menu or NHS App so another patient can use the slot.
Expecting scan results too quickly
Blood tests may be around 5 working days, urine about 7 working days, but scans can take weeks.
Assuming enhanced access is at Yarm surgery
Enhanced access appointments may be at local hub sites such as Eaglescliffe, Woodbridge or Tennant Street Medical Practices.
Ignoring Pharmacy First
For some common minor illnesses, a pharmacy may help without needing a GP appointment.
Asking GP for unnecessary OTC letters
The prescription page says non-prescription medicines do not need GP signature for schools, nurseries or childminders to give them.

Deep dive into Yarm GP access
Deep dive into appointment access

Deep dive into registration
The NHS profile says new patients are accepted, but the practice still checks whether your address fits the practice area or out-of-area registration rules.
Deep dive into prescriptions and NHS App
NHS App and SystmOnline reduce repeat-prescription friction. The online form and written route help when accounts are unavailable.
Deep dive into urgent vs routine GP care
Routine GP access is not the same as urgent care. Use 111 when urgent and unsure, and 999 for life-threatening symptoms.
Deep dive into test results
Different tests have different timelines. Blood and urine can be quicker, while scans and cervical screening usually take longer.
