Out Of Hours

Every effort is made to accommodate and see as many patients as possible in surgery hours. However, if the surgery is closed and you need immediate medical attention you may contact our out-of-hours service on 03000 33 33 33.

Alternatively, you can call NHS Direct on 0845 46 47 where a team of qualified personnel are available to take your call and provide necessary medical advice.

NHS Direct

If you want any information there is always someone available to provide an answer at NHS Direct, a 24-hour nurse-led helpline. Their number is 0845 46 47. They also have a patient-friendly website with a wealth of healthcare advice and information at http://www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk

Emergencies

If you encounter a serious health problem you can call the surgery and speak to a receptionist who may be able to offer you an emergency appointment. These are not pre-booked appointments and are ideally seen at the end of a session. You are not allowed to book an emergency before a session has started or after a session is over as there is always just one doctor on site, it is likely that you may need to wait a long time before you are seen, depending on how busy the surgery is running on the day.

For an emergency appointment, you must ring the surgery as early as possible, between 9:00 and 10:00am to be seen in the morning session, or between 3:00 and 4:00pm to be seen in the evening session.

Be aware, if you experience severe chest pain or are bleeding profusely, please call for an ambulance (telephone 999) before calling the surgery.
