When the Surgery is closed, an out-of-hours service is provided for advice on medical emergencies which cannot wait for the Surgery to open again. A doctor can give you telephone advice or recommend whether you attend the out-of-hours primary care centre. Only in exceptional circumstances will a home visit be authorised by the doctor.
Please telephone 01268 765533 where a recorded message will direct you to the emergency number which changes according to the time of day. The out-of-hours service is currently run by NHS 111.
