The new, simple and secure way to access a range of NHS services on your smartphone or tablet.

Patients at 95% of GP surgeries in England can now use all the features of the NHS App.

You can check if your GP surgery is connected when you open the app for the first time. If it's not, you can register your email address, and we'll notify you when they go live.

If your GP surgery is not connected, you can still download the app and use it to check your symptoms and find out what to do when you need help urgently.

Click to find out more and download the NHS App (opens in a new window).

Buckden & Little Paxton Surgeries are connected to the app. You can set this up without coming into the practice to request this. Simply register with the App and they will carry out checks to confirm your identity. The App will then securely connect to information from the practice. To keep your access secure, the App will send a security code to your phone each time you use it. If you have any issues using or downloading the app, check the NHS App help and support page at www.nhs.uk.
