About: West Street Surgery

...what is the point of an appointment time! Useless.

Also cannot do bloods after 3.30. So I guess I'll just hope for the best then.

Unfortunately there are times when are clinicians run behind schedule often due to other patients needing more time, an emergency, and extended house visit and our GPs having sometimes to deal with acute emergencies. I apologise for the delay in your appointment.

We can do blood tests after 3.30pm and also offer blood tests on Monday evenings. Perhaps the appointment slots were fully booked. You also have the option to have blood taken at the local phlebotomy service. To book an appointment you can call 01234 893684 line open between 8:30am -10:30am weekday or visit the website for further information https://www.elft.nhs.uk/services/phlebotomy-blood-testing-service-grove-view-dunstable
