Haddenham GP Booking: Use the Right Route First Time
If you need a GP appointment at Haddenham Medical Centre, the current system is more specific than simply phoning for a slot. GP appointment requests now go through the practice’s Accurx online booking form, where the clinical team reviews both same-day and routine requests.
Nursing appointments, blood tests and repeat prescriptions follow different routes. This guide separates them so you do not waste time putting the right request into the wrong system.
YOUR
ROUTE
Urgent and Out-of-Hours Help
Haddenham Medical Centre’s contact page directs patients to NHS 111 when the surgery is closed. A GP booking request should not delay emergency help.
Call 999.
Use NHS 111 online or call 111.
The practice says it closes for staff learning on several afternoons each year. Urgent cover during those periods is provided through local NHS arrangements, with patients directed to 111 when urgent help is required.
How to Book a GP Appointment at Haddenham Medical Centre
The main 2026 booking rule is simple: GP appointment requests go through Accurx, while several other appointment types do not.
Open Haddenham’s official appointment page
Start from the official Haddenham appointments page. It links to the practice’s current Accurx request form.
Use Accurx during its published availability
The practice says its GP booking link is available Monday to Friday, 08:00–18:30. It accepts both same-day and routine GP appointment requests.
Explain what you need
Complete the questions in the official form clearly. If you want a specific doctor, Haddenham says you can include that in your request, although availability cannot be guaranteed.
Watch for a message or phone call
Clinical staff review requests according to urgency. After assessment, you may receive an appointment time or information about another appropriate treatment route.
If you cannot complete the online form, call reception
The practice explicitly says reception can complete the form with patients over the telephone when they cannot use it themselves.
Do Not Put Every Request Into the GP Booking Form
This is where patients can easily lose time. Haddenham uses different routes depending on what you actually need.
| What you need | Current route | Useful detail |
|---|---|---|
| GP appointment | Accurx booking form | Used for same-day and routine GP requests. |
| Nurse appointment | Phone or reception desk | The GP online booking link does not book nursing appointments. |
| Blood test appointment | Phone or reception desk | Blood-test appointments are specifically excluded from online GP booking. |
| Fit note | Accurx administrative request | The practice lists fit-note requests among the administrative uses of the form. |
| Private referral request | Accurx administrative request | Haddenham lists private-referral requests among the supported admin requests. |
| Blood-test result request | Accurx admin route or results process | The practice lists blood-test results as an administrative use of Accurx. |
| Repeat medication | NHS App / prescription service | Repeat medication requests are not accepted through the GP appointment form. |
Doctors Currently Listed at Haddenham Medical Centre
The current practice staff page lists six established GP doctors. Haddenham is also a training practice, so GP registrars and foundation doctors can change over time.
Usual GP working days published by the practice
| Clinician | Usual days shown | Patient note |
|---|---|---|
| Dr Mark Howcutt | Mon, Wed, Thu, Fri | Ask for a specific GP in the form if continuity matters, but availability is not guaranteed. |
| Dr Nicola Wells | Mon, Wed, Thu | Working patterns can change due to leave, training or clinical commitments. |
| Dr Kaiser Munir | Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu morning, Fri | The practice also identifies Dr Munir as fluent in British Sign Language. |
| Dr Karen West | Mon, Tue | Use the booking request rather than assuming a named-doctor slot is free. |
| Dr Briony Rixon | Tue, Thu afternoon | The staff page lists a particular interest in women’s health and gynaecology. |
| Dr Christopher Davidson-Fox | Mon, Wed, Thu | Appointment allocation still depends on the clinical review and availability. |
How Same-Day GP Requests Work
Haddenham’s booking form can be used for both same-day and routine requests. The clinical team reviews the information and allocates appointments according to clinical urgency.
Submit the GP request during the form’s published weekday access period and clearly explain why you are contacting the surgery today. Keep your phone available in case the practice contacts you.
Use the same GP booking form but describe the issue accurately rather than presenting a routine problem as urgent. The clinical review determines the most appropriate timescale.

Nurse Appointments and Blood Tests Use Reception
Haddenham’s GP form is deliberately not a universal appointment booking tool. The practice specifically tells patients to phone or speak to reception for blood-test and nursing appointments.
That includes nursing work such as immunisations where a nurse slot is needed. Calling reception first avoids submitting a GP request only to be redirected later.
Repeat Prescriptions: Do Not Use the Appointment Form
Haddenham’s prescription page says the preferred route for repeat medication is its online prescription service, including the NHS App. Telephone requests are not accepted for repeat prescriptions for safety and confidentiality reasons.
Use the NHS App
Patients can request available repeat medicines and manage their nominated pharmacy through the NHS App.
Paper route
The practice says a paper repeat request is available when online ordering is not possible.
Electronic prescribing
Haddenham supports the Electronic Prescription Service so prescriptions can usually be sent to a nominated pharmacy.
How to Check Test Results
Haddenham’s current online ecosystem includes the NHS App and Patient Access for viewing test results. The practice’s results page also continues to publish a telephone route.
Check the NHS App or Patient Access if the result has been released into your GP record. The practice’s Patient Participation Group also runs an IT helpdesk for patients needing help with Accurx, the NHS App or Patient Access.
Haddenham’s results page asks patients to allow at least three working days before phoning for common laboratory results and to call after 14:00. Hospital-arranged investigations may need to be followed up with the hospital instead.
Registering as a New Patient
NHS currently says Haddenham Medical Centre is accepting new patients. The practice provides online registration and says the online form takes around 10 minutes to complete.
Check the catchment first
Haddenham publishes a defined practice area and says it does not accept out-of-area registrations.
Open the official registration page
Use the practice’s new-patient page and follow the current online registration link shown there.
Complete the requested patient details
Give accurate contact and previous-practice information. Once accepted, Haddenham says your medical records will be transferred from your previous practice.
For a child under 5, remember the red immunisation book
Haddenham specifically asks parents registering a child under five to bring the child’s red immunisation book with the required registration paperwork.

Home Visits: Request Before 10:00
Haddenham says a home visit may be available for patients who genuinely need to be seen and are too ill to attend the surgery.
The published process is to telephone the surgery before 10:00. A doctor first calls to assess whether a home visit is appropriate. The practice says its attached specialist paramedic usually undertakes home visits.
