When We Are Closed
If you need advice after surgery hours, e.g. between 6:30pm – 8:00am weekdays, weekends or Bank Holidays, an “Out of Hours” service is available. This service is provided by the Primary Care Trust. If you telephone the surgery out of hours a recorded message will inform you where to telephone for help.
NHS 111
In the case of urgent need when the practice is closed you can call NHS 111 to speak to a triage nurse. Your needs will be assessed and advice offered or arrangements made for you to see a doctor.
Please do not ask to see a doctor out of hours unless you genuinely cannot wait until the surgery re-opens.
Call 999 in an emergency. Chest pains and/or shortness of breath constitute an emergency.
