The hospital is also called Milton Keynes general hospital. There are couple of good things about medical services in Milton Keynes.
1. Recently they started a walk in center which is open till 10 pm and is staffed by nurses. So if you have minor illnesses, bruises needing a bandage etc. it can be a quick place. Its located in the hospital campus.
2. MK-DOCS (Milton Keynes Doctors On Call) is a service that also operates in the hospital campus.
I think it started couple of years back. Its open when your GP surgery is closed (evenings and weekends). So if you have a medical emergency, you can go there with an appointment (Your surgery will typically divert calls to MKDOCs helpdesk outside working hours). Firstly a nurse will assess you over phone and will ask you to go to MK DOCS if necessary.
I have used this service for myself and for kids and have found it to be extremely useful. Thanks NHS.
