South Street Medical Centre
Medical Center in London
We're a huge GP Practice in the heart of Greenwich, catering to a diverse group of patients. Our experienced and friendly practice staff supply NHS care to our 9, 000 patients, drawn from the local area. Together with several other local practices (Coldharbour Surgery in Eltham, The Hill Surgery in Chislehurst and the Campus Surgery at the University of Greenwich) we operate as Primecare Medical Services; this arrangement enables us to draw on a bigger pool of clinical team than would be the norm, ensuring greater continuity of care to our patients.

Services
read moreIf you have a genuine problem, you should phone the Medical Centre and inform the receptionist that your problem is urgent. A doctor or nurse will try to see you the same day. If you are too ill to visit the surgery, telephone the centre and ask for a home visit. You will need to telephone us as early as possible in the day so that arrangements may be made. Home visits are very time consuming for the Doctors, and limit the number of patients they can see in the Medical Centre, so it is advisable that you try to come to the centre.
Collaborative Services
read moreAll of these sites face different challenges and cater for differing demographics so the collaborative arrangement has allowed our clinical staff to gain extensive expertise in caring for patients with wide ranging requirements of care, from the large student population of Avery Hill Campus to the residents of West Greenwich. Working together also allows us to share best practice in the running of the surgeries, resulting in better care for all of our patients and close relations with other health professionals throughout the area.
Prescription
read moreIf you are on a long term medication, you may be able to obtain repeat prescriptions without seeing the doctor. Let the receptionist know what you require, but please try to give 48 hrs' notice. Every three months, you will need to see a doctor or a nurse to review your medication unless agreed otherwise. Please come to the surgery and tell the receptionist the medication you require or write to us enclosing a self addressed stamped envelope. Alternatively, you could make arrangements with the local chemist of your choice to collect your prescriptions.

GP Training

GP registrars are experienced hospital doctors who work with us for a year and during their time may wish to video their consultations with the patient's consent as part of their training assessment.
Appointments

The patient can phone the surgery in the morning and we will endeavour to give them an appointment for that day.

These measures are to ensure that the Doctor can give you an appropriate length of consultation without inconveniencing our other patients.
