Croston Walk-In Clinic
Please note the Monday Walk-in Clinic at Croston Medical Centre has now been renamed ‘Open Clinic.’ Doors will open at 8.30am.
Patients will book in as normal and be given an allotted time, they will then have the option to sit and wait or return at their appointment time.
The above clinic will run from 8.30am-Noon with a limited capacity of 16 patients. This is due to only having one GP on site at CMC on Mondays.
Wednesday’s Walk-in Clinic will run as normal with two GPs and a maximum of 32 patients who will be seen on a first come, first serve basis.
Please be aware this arrangement may change during some weeks due to availability of GPs.
