Out of Hours Service
Out of Hours Arrangements
Out of hours there is always a doctor on call. The telephone
number can be obtained by ringing the surgery (01295 256261) for
a recorded message. Alternatively, your call may be
automatically diverted to a message-taking service or a mobile
phone.
This practice is a member of an out-of-hours consortium. This
means that visits requested between 6.30pm and 8.00am may be
carried out by a doctor from another practice.
Please only request an out-of-hours visit for an urgent problem.
If the matter can be dealt with on the telephone please state
this.
If you require immediate emergency medical attention, please
dial 999 for the ambulance.
NHS Direct
If you are unsure about your needs during the out of hours
period you may wish first of all to contact NHS Direct on 0845
4647. They will offer you advice from a trained nurse.
