Closed each day between 12.30-1.30pm

If you ring the surgery number you will hear a voice mail message which will give you instructions on how to contact a doctor.

The telephone number for Out of Hours calls between 8am and 8.30 am and between 6.00pm and 6.30pm is 0300 1230762. All other calls between 6.30pm and 8am should be made to NHS 111

Your urgent out of hours medical care is commissioned by the Primary Care Trust.

To ensure that your records are complete, details of out of hours consultations are passed to us and are retained in your notes.

In order to manage the ever-increasing workload of both our dispenary and patient services team we are having to enforce the closure of our dispensary from 12.30-2.00pm daily. We will be unable to hand out any medication during this time. 

Whilst not handing out medication the patient services team can focus on other areas of their role which along with answering the phones and covering the front desk includes putting through all prescriptions, registering new patients as well as scanning and workflowing all hospital correspondence.

We hope you understand the need for this change and thank you for your continued support. 

111 online is a fast and convenient alternative to the 111 phone service and provides an option for people who want to access 111 digitally. 

Your needs will be assessed and you will be given advice about whether you need:
