Finsbury Health Centre built between 1935 and 1938 as part of the 'Finsbury Plan' was an initiative by Alderman Harold Riley and Dr Katial, Chairman of the Public Health Committee to provide better conditions for the borough's residents. It was the first public commission of Berthold Lubetkin and Tecton (an association of London architects) who were important in the Modern Movement in architecture.
Between the hours of 6.30-8pm on Monday to Friday, and from 8am-8pm on Saturday and Sunday, all calls will be answered by the reception team at I:HUB who will deal with your call appropriately. Between the hours of 8pm-8am each day, please call 111 (NHS Urgent Care number). Please note, our phone lines are switched over to Care UK on Wednesday afternoons from 1pm, to allow our reception staff to have ongoing training.
Some regular medication can be issued on a repeat basis so you do not have to see a doctor each time. However we will not issue a repeat prescription when you are due for a review of your medication. We now offer a service for patients on stable medication, where we can give you a 6-12 month prescription to take to your chemist.
It is essential that all students register with a local doctors' surgery when they move into their new accommodation, whether it be a Hall of Residence, house or flat. This will provide you with easy access to the full range of medical services during your time at University. We have allocated a Named Accountable GP for all of our registered patients.
We want our patients to become more involved in decisions about the range and quality of services we currently provide, and to help us move forwards with any new services we may commission in the future. We therefore started a Patient Participation Group (PPG) in 2011 which meets every few months to discuss important issues.

3 staff members at Clerkenwell Medical Practice (1 in particular, Sarah Cosgrave) have been incredibly kind, helpful, supportive & efficient during a recent, difficult experience involving COVID-19. I'm very grateful for the compassion offered by that 1 special staff member in particular - it made the world of difference on some very dark days. I also appreciate how busy ALL the staff are currently given the booster shot programme - so thank you.

I’m so glad to have left this practice. The rude receptionist always seemed like phoning her was a inconvenience in her busy day. The doctors are OK at run of the mill medical issues but DO NOT expect any mental health support. They are quite incapable of helping. Dr Desouza was very arrogant and insulting to me, I was devastated to be treated so poorly when in need of support. They made me feel worse not better. They generally don’t listen to what you are saying on the phone and talk over you to get to the next person. I appreciate they are very busy but by not listening issues are not solved

5 stars thus far. Dr. DeSouza has been so helpful in helping manage a chronic condition I currently have that always seems to need treatment with no known cause yet. I am very grateful for her help. The office staff responds very promptly to all communications and so far I feel a lot more secure with my health. Thank you!!

The medical professionals here are excellent, put you at ease, take the time to really listen to you and understand your concerns. It’s faultless. 5 stars easily.
On the other hand, the reception service has been poor in the last month, though it used to be good. I have recently moved and I’m very disappointed with how my out of area patient registration (which the doctor recommended!) is being handled. I am still waiting for my new address and new pharmacist to be changed on the system despite submitting the form a month ago. I was told 9 days after I sent my form that it had only just been

Absolutely disappointing the way doctors in this Medical practice handle the cases.
firstly they never take ownership or diagnose you.
every time you go they keep on asking - "What do you think this issue could be"- How will I know? All I can tell you is symptoms, it is your job/expertise to tell me what it could be.
We are with this medical practice for nearly 3.5 years and every time I felt that doctors here have no clue at all.
They hardly diagnose you, I can quote few instances to give you clear picture.
