Lakenheath Surgery

04/09/2026

So far today 5 people have failed to attend their appointment with the physiotherapist. That is within five hours of clinical time.

There is a cost for this service, and the surgery pay for it as a benefit to Lakenheath patients.

Doing this means we offer physiotherapy in the village every single week, in addition to the services offered elsewhere.

We work hard to provide a range of clinical services to patients, however this is both frustrating and inexcusable - a waste of both time and money.

Please Note: We Are Not a Walk-In Service

Our GP surgery operates by **appointment only** and is **not a walk-in service**.

If you need to see a GP, nurse, or other member of our clinical team, please contact the surgery to arrange an appointment. Please do not attend the surgery expecting to be seen without an appointment.

If you require urgent assistance please contact 999 or attend A&E. For other on the day services, you can consider the pharmacy or Ely Minor Injuries.

Thank you for your understanding and for helping us provide a safe and efficient service to all our patients.

In June we offered / held 4,365 appointments,

This was 719 more than in May.

That’s nearly 400 appointments per 1,000 patients.

More than half of these appointments were requested and held on the same day.

Of more than 6,000 practices this puts us in the top 4% holding same day appointments and contacts with patients.
