1 Frith Street, London, W1D 3HZ
From 7 May 2024, this service has been restored to a walk in service.
About the Walk-in Service
The Walk-in service is led by Clinical Practitioners and they can see patients over 16 years old (registered and unregistered). Our practitioners will be able to assess, diagnose and treat a number of acute minor illnesses and manage acute wounds via this service. Alongside the Walk in Centre we have an appointment service for wound care/dressing changes. For your initial wound care you must attend as a walk-in and if your wound is suitable for the WiC, you can make appointments going forward.
Attending the Walk in Centre
Patients are advised to arrive approximately one hour before closing time and for un-booked dressing appointments no later than 3pm. When you arrive at the Walk-in centre you will be booked in by one of our reception coordinators who will ask you some details about you and the reason for your visit. You will then wait for the initial assessment known as triage which is usually within 15 minutes after being booked in. Triage is performed to ensure we are the most appropriate healthcare service for you. A clinical practitioner will either advise you to wait for a further consultation or redirect you to the most appropriate healthcare provider if it’s a condition we cannot manage
