John Smith Medical Centre opening hours survey (September 2026)

John Smith Medical Centre currently offers appointments during its core opening hours of 8:00 am to 6:30 pm, with extended opening hours available beyond this on some weekdays.

Our current opening hours are:

• Monday to Tuesday: 8:00 am to 7:00 pm
• Wednesday: 8:00 am to 8:00 pm
• Thursday to Friday: 8:00 am to 7:00 pm

We are reviewing these arrangements as we currently see limited demand for appointments during the extended opening hours (after 6:30 pm).

Before making any decisions, we would like to understand how important these extended hours are to our patients and their households. Your feedback will help inform any future changes to practice opening hours.
1.How often do you access practice services after 6:30 pm?
2.If the practice returned to core opening hours (8:00 am – 6:30 pm), how would this affect your ability to access services?
3.Do you feel that the current extended opening hours are important for you and your household?
4.Do you have any comments or suggestions regarding the practice's opening hours?
