GP+ Appointments

Suffolk GP+ is for people who urgently need a doctor’s appointment or are unable to see their GP during normal GP hours.

Appointments can be made via Reception during our usual opening hours.  Please note that patients cannot refer themselves to this service.

The service is staffed by local Suffolk GPs and Nurse Practitioners in Ipswich, Felixtowe, Stowmarket, Leiston and Wickham Market and is an NHS service delivered by the Suffolk GP Federation.

You will be given a booked appointment and will be seen by a suitable local GP or nurse who will have access to your medical records (once consent is given).


Appointment System Fact Sheet

We undertook a patient survey in June and July 2013 to evaluate how well the new appointment system is being received. In fact it was very well received with 51% of patients reporting it better than the previous system and 31% reporting it the same. On top of this waiting times have been dramatically reduced. Click here to see the full set of results


Online access to appointment booking blood tests and viewing your summary records

We now provide patients with the ability to book (or cancel)  blood appointments for the near future using the Systemone online facility
