Telephone Lines

Please be aware that although the Surgery is open from 08:15 to 18:30 Monday to Friday, the phone lines are diverted to our local GP service between 18:00-18:30 in the evening and 08:00-08:30 in the morning

Training Afternoons

The surgery will be closed on one afternoon every three months for an afternoon of staff training. During this time, calls are handled by a message service, and there is an on call doctor available if it is an emergency. The Surgery re-opens after 16.00 and then takes call as normal. We will post the dates of the upcoming meetings.

Out of Hours Service

Out of hours’ is the period of time between 18:30 and 08:00 during weekdays, and also includes weekends, bank and public holidays. If you need urgent medical care when the surgery is closed (and it can’t wait until the morning) please call NHS 111.  Contacting this number will put you through to specially trained staff who will make sure that you receive the right sort of advice and help quickly. Please plan ahead to avoid using the Out of Hours Service to request repeat prescriptions.

Call 999 in an emergency. Chest pains and / or shortness of breath constitute an emergency.
