When We Are Closed

When the surgery is closed please telephone the surgery number and you will be able to access the out of hour’s information. Please remember that the accident and emergency is for urgent life threatening conditions and severe injury. If you’re problem isn’t life threatening then it is best to call the out of hour’s provider via the surgery number.
