Need Stockwood GP help? Start with the verified route instead of an old directory listing
Stockwood Medical Centre is the NHS GP practice on Hollway Road, Stockwood, Bristol, BS14 8PT. Its verified main telephone number is 01275 833103 and its NHS organisation code is L81009.
The NHS profile currently says the surgery is accepting new patients. Stockwood also supports online GP services for selected appointments, repeat prescriptions and record access, while reception remains an important route when you need help choosing the correct service.
How to Request an Appointment at Stockwood
The current official contact page still directs patients with a medical matter to contact reception to make an appointment with the appropriate person. Stockwood’s online-services documentation also confirms that selected doctor and nurse appointments can be booked or cancelled online.
Decide whether you need appointment help or a routine online task
If you are unsure which clinician or service you need, reception on 01275 833103 is the verified direct contact route.
Use online services for appointments made available digitally
Stockwood’s GP Online Services information says the surgery chooses which doctor or nurse appointments can be booked online. This means the online list may not show every type of appointment.
Do not assume “no online slot” means “no appointment exists”
If the appointment you need does not appear online, contact reception. Some clinics and appointment types need to be arranged differently.
Explain briefly what kind of help you need
Reception may need enough information to identify whether a GP, nurse practitioner, practice nurse, pharmacist or another service is the appropriate route.
Check the confirmed date and time
Do not travel simply because a directory shows the surgery as open. Attend at the time given in your booking or follow the practice’s current instructions.
What Can Be Done Through Stockwood’s Online GP Services?
Stockwood publishes an official GP Online Services request form. It describes online access as an additional way of contacting the surgery rather than replacing telephone or in-person contact.
Appointments
Book or cancel selected doctor and nurse appointments when the practice has made those slots available online.
Repeat prescriptions
The practice supports online repeat prescription management, reducing the need to make a separate trip simply to order medicine.
GP record access
Depending on the access level approved for your account, online services can include allergies, medicines, laboratory results, immunisations, problems and consultations.
Stockwood Opening Hours: Check the Live Listing Before Travelling
This is one area where repeating a cached timetable could create a poor patient experience. The official CQC inspection background states that the surgery was open 8:30am–6:30pm Monday to Friday, but that information comes from the 2016 inspection period.
More recent NHS-data-derived public listings show a different pattern, including earlier morning access and some extended Thursday access. Older pages also preserve historical evening and Saturday arrangements. Because those schedules do not fully agree, this guide does not label any one of them as a guaranteed 2026 weekly timetable.
Best for today’s hours
Open the live NHS Stockwood profile and select contact details and opening times.
Before a special journey
Call 01275 833103, especially around bank holidays or if you are relying on an early, late or weekend arrangement.
If you already have a booking
Follow the confirmed appointment time rather than treating reception hours as the only time clinical appointments can occur.
Why You May See Different Stockwood Hours Online
| Source type | What it shows | How to treat it |
|---|---|---|
| CQC inspection background | 8:30am–6:30pm Monday-Friday during the historical inspection period | Reliable historical context, but not proof of today’s exact 2026 hours |
| Older extended-hours records | Evening or Saturday sessions | Do not assume these arrangements are still current |
| Recent public NHS-data directories | A somewhat different weekday/extended pattern | Helpful cross-check, but use NHS/practice directly for final travel planning |
| NHS live GP profile | Current open/closed status and opening-times section | Preferred live reference together with the practice itself |
Repeat Prescriptions: Give Stockwood and the Pharmacy Enough Time
Stockwood’s official prescription guidance advises patients to order when they have no more than around 14 days of medication remaining and to allow at least five working days before collecting medication from the pharmacy.
CHECK Check what you have left
Order only the medicines you actually need.
ORDER Use an accepted route
Online service, pharmacy arrangement, repeat slip or another published practice route.
GP Practice checks request
Prescriptions must be clinically checked and authorised.
PHARM Pharmacy dispenses
Stock availability can add time, particularly for special items.

Why a Repeat Medicine Can Suddenly Need Review
Stockwood says medicines normally need to be reviewed at least annually, with more frequent review for complex treatment or higher-risk medicines.
If a medication review is overdue, the practice may reduce the quantity supplied until the required review has taken place.
Depending on the medicine, review can involve a GP, nurse practitioner, practice nurse or practice pharmacist.
The NHS Currently Says Stockwood Is Accepting New Patients
The NHS profile currently states that Stockwood Medical Centre is accepting new patients. Stockwood also publishes its own patient-registration form.
Confirm you have the correct Stockwood surgery
The address should be Hollway Road, Stockwood, Bristol, BS14 8PT and the NHS organisation code is L81009.
Check the current NHS registration status
Use the official NHS profile because new-patient status can change after an article is published.
Complete the official registration route
Provide accurate address and contact information and follow any instructions the practice gives for completing your registration.
Do not send registration information to an independent directory
MedicalCentreUK.org does not hold patient records and cannot register you with the NHS practice.
Bristol city-centre patients comparing registration arrangements may also find our Broadmead Medical Centre NHS registration guide useful, particularly for understanding how catchment and online registration rules can differ between Bristol practices.
Who Might You See at Stockwood?
Stockwood is more than a room of GP doctors. Official practice and CQC material describe a wider primary-care team, and the practice is also recognised as a GP training practice.
GPs
Stockwood’s contact page currently names Dr A Taylor, Dr K Cox and Dr D Azimzadeh. Other practice documents also reference salaried GPs, so use the current team information if you need a particular clinician.
Nursing team
Nurse practitioners, practice nurses, healthcare assistants and phlebotomy staff support treatment-room and long-term-condition care.
Practice pharmacist
Stockwood’s published practice material also describes pharmacy input, including medication-review support.
Some Services Are More Specific Than a Standard GP Appointment
Stockwood’s own pages and current NHS directory record confirm several practice-specific services. This is useful because not every request should begin with a generic GP appointment.
Contraception
The practice provides contraception advice and publishes specific information about contraceptive implants and coil fitting/removal.
Sexual-health testing
The NHS service directory currently lists self-sampling chlamydia and gonorrhoea testing kits for young women aged 16–24.
Child immunisations
Stockwood publishes a regular child immunisation clinic as part of its family-health services.
Pregnancy Care Uses the Local Midwifery Team
Stockwood’s women’s-health information says its GPs share maternity care with the local midwifery team, whose staff are based at South Bristol Community Hospital.
The practice page advises contacting maternity services early in pregnancy so the booking appointment and dating scan can be planned. It lists the Antenatal Booking Team number as 0117 342 0850.
Online Records, Proxy Access and Formal Record Requests
Stockwood publishes several different record-access routes, and they solve different problems.
| Need | Useful route | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| View available GP information online | GP online services / NHS App where enabled | Can include medication, allergies, results and parts of the record |
| Carer or trusted person managing online services | Practice proxy-access process | Formal consent-based access for appointments, prescriptions or records |
| Formal copy of your medical records | Subject Access Request via the practice | Practice policy says requests can be made through reception |
Sick Notes: Do Not Request NHS Medical Evidence Too Early
Stockwood’s current fit-note guidance distinguishes between the first seven days of sickness and longer absence.
The practice says employers should not normally require medical evidence for an absence of seven days or less. Employees can use self-certification.
Stockwood provides a sick-note request form and says patients can also phone or visit the surgery between 10am and 6pm for this task.
