When We Are Closed

NHS Direct
In the case of urgent need when the practice is closed you can call
NHS Direct (0845 4647) 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 sudden shortness of breath constitute an emergency. Sudden weakness of face, arm or leg, sudden loss of vision or sudden difficulty in speaking are also an emergency.
