Opening Times

Surgery Times

*Extended hours: All appointments must be pre-booked and the surgery will only be open for those with pre arranged appointments.

Phone calls to the surgery during these extended hours will continue to be answered by the out of hours emergency service and not by the surgery.

Patients booking an extended hours appointment will be given a separate telephone number to call if they need to cancel their appointment at very short notice (01206 878841) This number can only be used during the extended hours period, your call will not be dealt with if you ring this number at any other time and the number is only to be used to cancel appointments.

Anyone who turns up at the surgery without an appointment will need to contact the out of hours service if their need is urgent or else phone or return during normal opening hours. To make appointments, get test results, collect prescriptions and make any queries you will need to contact the surgery during normal opening hours. 

When We Are Closed

Call 111

In the case of urgent need when the practice is closed you can call 111. Your needs will be assessed and advice offered or arrangements made for you to see a doctor.

Please do not ask to see a doctor out of hours unless you genuinely cannot wait until the surgery re-opens.

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