About us

This purpose-built medical centre opened in March 1987 and provides a full range of General Medical Services for the surrounding areas in Bexley, Bexleyheath, Crayford and Northhumberland heath. We offer a wide range of up-to-date diagnostic and therapeutic services in a modern, light and friendly environment and are supported by our Nursing and Reception staff.

Surgery Opening Hours

The surgery is open and the reception staff are on duty from 8.00am to 6.30pm, Monday to Friday (excluding Bank Holidays). The telephone lines are answered by our surgery reception staff between 8.00am and 6.30pm, Monday to Friday. Outside of these hours, including weekends, patients are advised to telephone 111 (the NHS call centre). In addition, the surgery also offers early morning commuter clinics on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 7.00am.

We are also able to offer patients GP appointments with the BHNC Queen Mary’s Hospital and Erith Hospital GP Hubs, 6:30pm to 8:00pm, Monday to Friday and 8:00am to 8:00pm at Weekends and Bank Holidays.

Please do not assume that there will always be a doctor available when the surgery is open. They may be on home visits, holding clinics (on the surgery premises) or doing other work for the benefit of the practice.

This website was set up for your help and guidance. The details may be subject to change from time to time, so please check with the reception staff who will be happy to assist you, should further information be required.

New Computer System Installation

We are migrating to a new computer system on Tuesday 20 August 2019. In order to facilitate this change the information held on our current system will be ‘cut’ on Wednesday 14 August 2019, which will have the following impact on our services: Between 10 August 2019 and 19 August 2019 we will not be able to: • Send prescriptions via the electronic prescription service • Process routine referrals • Receive blood results electronically • Receive hospital letters, reports etc electronically • Register new patients Prescriptions - We will only be processing urgent prescriptions between 10 August and 19 August 2019, therefore we request that any prescriptions that are due to be submitted within this timeframe are submitted before Wednesday 7 August 2019 in order that they can be processed early. Online Services - Patients will lose access to online services and will need to register for the online services linked to our new system when invited to do so. Appointments - Patients will only be able to pre-book routine appointments up until 23 August 2019 and we will only have emergency appointments available on Tuesday 20 August 2019. Normal appointment availability will resume after 20 August 2019.
