Out of Hours Service

Between 6.30pm and 8.00am Monday to Friday and all day at weekends and on Bank Holidays your call will be redirected to the NHS 111 service.

In the case of urgent need when the practice is closed you can call the Out of Hours Service on telephone number 111. 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.

Occasionally the surgery closes for staff training and notification of this is stated in advance on the surgery information board.

Extended Hours

We offer extended hours every Saturday (by strict appointment only). This is only for our physiotherapy appointments. We are not open for general enquiries or for the collection of prescriptions. Patients will be directed to the out of hours service.

We also offer extended hours 1 evening per week (6:30pm – 7:30pm).

We try to offer the extended hours to patients who find it difficult to access the surgery Monday-Friday.
