If you find it difficult to access a GP during normal surgery times we have now introduced extended hours surgery on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings from 6.30pm to 7.30pm.

These extra sessions are for the use of patients who are designated carers or due to work commitments cannot get during normal surgery times and these appointments are pre-bookable.

If you are in need of urgent medical advice when the surgery is closed, please dial 111. During surgery hours always contact your practice on 01226 752361.

Information about the 111 service:

• You need medical help fast but it is not a 999 emergency
• You think you need to go to A & E or need another NHS urgent care service
• You don’t know who to call or you don’t have a GP to call
• You need health information or reassurance about what to do next

You can call 111 free from any number including mobile numbers.

For immediate life-threatening emergencies continue to call 999.

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:

• Treat yourself at home
• Go to a Primary Care Centre

If you need face to face medical attention you may be asked to attend a Primary Care Centre.
