When We Are Closed
If you need a doctor urgently when the surgery is closed please telephone 01603 621006 and your call will be automatically diverted to NHS 111. They provide urgent medical care between 6.30 pm and 8.00 am Monday to Friday and 6.30 pm Friday night to 8.00 am Monday morning and on public and bank holidays. You will be assessed, given advice and directed straightaway to the local service that can help you best. If you telephone the surgery on 01603 621006 you will be automatically connected to NHS 111. There will be a charge for this service. If you call 111 direct from any landline or mobile the call will be free.
It is also worth remembering that your usual pharmacy will often be able to dispense an emergency supply of your usual medication without a prescription at the weekend if you should run out.
Please remember to consider calling 01603 621006 or NHS 111 rather than attending A&E where possible.
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.
