Islington iHUB – Evening and Weekend Appointments

Islington iHUB offers increased access to GPs for patients registered at any Islington practice. There are several iHUB locations in Islington. Registered patients are now able to book appointments with Islington doctors and nurses at an Islington GP hub when the practice is closed. Simply ask a receptionist for an iHUB appointment and they will try to offer you one that is both convenient for you and that also suits your health needs.

Islington GP hubs are open between 18:30 and 20:00 each weekday and from 08:00 to 20:00 at the weekend.

If we are closed you can call the usual surgery number between 18:30 to 20:00 Mondays to Fridays and 08:00 to 20:00 on Saturdays and Sundays and your call will be answered by iHUB staff who will be able to assist you. These appointments are available for routine appointments and do not need to be urgent requests.

You can also book iHUB appointments by calling the surgery during normal opening hours and you can book appointments at our surgery in normal hours by calling iHUB via the surgery number between 18:30 & 20:00 on weekdays or 08:00 to 20:00 at weekends.

If you book an appointment, the doctor or nurse may, only with your consent, view your GP held medical records, on that occasion only, in order to provide you with the best care.

111 is the NHS non-emergency number. It’s fast, easy and free. Call 111 and speak to a highly trained adviser, supported by healthcare professionals. They will ask you a series of questions to assess your symptoms and immediately direct you to the best medical care for you.

NHS 111 is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Calls are free from landlines and mobile phones.

In case of a life-threatening emergency, please dial 999
