The Willow Group

Welcome to the Willow Group

Welcome to The Willow Group. We are five long-established Gosport GP practices joined into one organisation. We have a team of doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals supported by highly-trained admin staff. We all work to give our patients the best health care support for their needs. We have five sites in Gosport giving you choice about where you can access your primary health care. Willow Group is part of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust.

Choose an option below to find out how to make an appointment, get a prescription, view your medical record, or contact us.

📞  Important Patient Notice 📞

Our new telephone number is now live!

Willow Group has switched to a new, more reliable phone service. It has a call-back feature so you do not have to stay in a queue. If your call cannot be answered straight away, the system will save your place and call you back when it’s your turn. You will also be able to check and cancel your appointments.

Our new contact number is:

023 9200 5450

👉 Please update your records

👉 The old number will have a recorded message directing people to call the new number until 15 October 2025 when it will go out of use

All calls will be recorded for training and monitoring purposes.

Thank you

The Willow Group

Weight loss injections

Please be aware that despite what you may read in the mainstream media, at Willow Group (and all other local Practices), we remain unable to prescribe injectable weight loss treatments for the treatment of obesity.

Our local commissioners are working on a plan for the future and we will provide updates in due course. Please visit their website for more information.

We have our new patient charter which sets out what our patients can expect from us and how patients can support us. This can be found here: You and Your General Practice NHS England YYGP document

As we work together to make improvements there are a few things that you can do to help support us, these are:

  1. Be prepared: Before an appointment, think about writing down your symptoms, what you are worried about and what you want to talk about.
  2. Be on time: Being late for an appointment or being unavailable for a timed call-back can affect other patients.
  3. Cancel if needed: If you can’t go to your appointment, tell us as soon as you can, so we can offer it to someone else.
  4. Use the NHS App or website: If you’re confident using smart phones or computers, you can book or cancel appointments, order repeat prescriptions, and see your test results online. Or scan the QR code 
  5. No Internet Access: If you have difficulty accessing the internet you can call or come into the surgery and our Care Navigators will help fill out the eConsult with you.
  6. Turn on notifications: If you use the NHS App, turn on notifications so we can contact you more easily.  Please keep an eye out for messages.
  7. Order repeat medicines on time: Make sure you ask for repeat prescriptions on time, so you don’t run out, and only order what you need.
  8. Join the Patient Participation Group: we have a group of patients who offer feedback on the services we deliver. 

If you have any questions, or any feedback regarding the practice please contact us on hiowicb-hsi.mywillowexperience@nhs.net
