Out of Hours Medical Assistance
Between 6pm and 8am Mon-Fri, and 6pm Fri-8am Mon, the surgery is closed. In order to obtain medical
advice at these times, please call 111. A receptionist in the emergency call centre will
answer your call.
They will either:
- Arrange for you to speak to a doctor or nurse
- Invite you to attend the centre to be seen by the doctor.
- Arrange a home visit if you are too ill to visit the centre
Please take a leaflet for further details from reception. Out of hours cover is now the
