Dr Awan GP Sheffield – Personalised Care for Your Health Needs
Dr Awan GP Sheffield proudly serves the local community at Carrfield Medical Centre, part of Heeley Plus Primary Care Network. We aim to make healthcare accessible, timely, and personal for all patients in Sheffield. Our team works closely with you to deliver the best care possible.
Book Appointments Easily with Dr Awan GP Sheffield
To book an appointment, simply complete our secure online form. This is the quickest way to contact the clinical team. However, if you have accessibility needs, you can call us directly on 0114 258 4724. For others, the receptionist may ask you to use the online form instead.
Please do not use the form for emergencies. In life-threatening situations, call 999 or NHS 111 right away.
Urgent and Routine Care Options
If you are unwell and need urgent care, call the practice immediately. A doctor will assess your condition by phone and decide on next steps. If needed, you will be given a same-day appointment.
Routine appointments—such as smear tests or vaccinations—can be arranged over the phone. Additionally, if you used a self-booking link, you may change or cancel online up to 12 hours before. Otherwise, please call us.
Home Visits from Dr Awan GP Sheffield and Team
We offer home visits for patients who are housebound or too unwell to travel. For this reason, call before 10:30 AM so our doctors can prioritise visits based on urgency.
Examples of patients needing home visits include those with terminal illness or severe mobility issues. However, if you are mobile, attending in person is usually more effective.
What to Do When We’re Closed
If we are closed and you need help, call NHS 111. The service is available 24/7 and offers guidance for non-emergencies. Conversely, for serious or life-threatening cases, dial 999 immediately.
Emergencies include:
Chest pain or heart attack
Unconsciousness
Stroke symptoms
Breathing problems
Serious injuries
Remain calm and helpful, but never put yourself at risk. Do not give food or drink unless advised.
When to Use A&E Instead of the GP
A&E should be used for true emergencies. For instance, deep wounds, broken bones, or heavy bleeding may require urgent care. However, if you’re unsure, NHS 111 can guide you.
