A new weekend and evening GP service has been commissioned through Alliance for Better Care (ABC) to provide additional access to primary care services. New GP Hubs will be operating in Mid Sussex which will offer pre-bookable GP appointments for patients registered with a practice in Mid Sussex. Weekday evening appointments are being offered from Dolphins Practice in Haywards Heath and from Cuckfield Practice. Saturday appointments are available in Burgess Hill.  You can book an appointment by contacting Cowfold Surgery in the normal way during our opening hours. GPs working at the Hubs will be able to access your medical records. In order to book an appointment you will need to give your agreement to this at the time of booking.  

Online appointment booking is now available for G.P. appointments.  Please go to the appointments page for more information.

We  would like to invite Patients to join a Patient Representative Group for their feedback and to help us improve the services we offer.
