We are now using Doctorlink.

Loughton Health Centre would like to invite you to join DoctorLink.

Sign up is simple and you can sign up here https://app.doctorlink.com/LoughtonHealthcentre/register or download the app.

We have been looking at how we can improve access to Practice services; DoctorLink is our new online service where you can:

  1. Access advice
  2. Book appointments
  3. Request Repeat Prescriptions
  4. Request Fit/Sick Notes

For all urgent appointments, we ask that you undertake a symptom assessment through DoctorLink.

The symptom assessment will ask you a number of questions to help to identify your problem.

The outcome of your assessment will direct you to the right treatment, whether emergency care, your GP, nurse or self-care.

If your outcome indicates that an appointment is required atLoughton Health Centre, you simply click on the “book an appointment” button and book your appointment directly.

If no appointments are available, you will see a “request an appointment” button, please click this.

Once the request has been submitted, you will then be contacted by the Practice Team, to arrange an appointment within the identified timeframe (as outlined in the outcome of your symptom checker).

The information you provide will be only shared with our clinical team (where appropriate) and will assist in providing robust information of your problem to the required clinical team member prior to your appointment.
