NHS Grampian Walk-In Centre

 

The NHS Grampian Walk-In Centre is available for patients with new, short-term health problems requiring same-day assessment. The service is walk-in only and operates within agreed capacity limits. During the day, while the medical practice is open, you should still contact us as usual. However if the practice has reached appointment capacity for the day, the Walk-In Centre may be a good option if you meet the criteria below.

 

The service is intended for conditions that can usually be managed during a single visit and is not a replacement for routine GP services, ongoing care or emergency treatment.
