Non-urgent advice: Help us help you – avoid non-urgent requests on Mondays

Mondays are our busiest day for urgent, same-day medical needs, as many issues arise over the weekend that require prompt attention.

To help us prioritise patients who need on-the-day care, we kindly ask that routine requests, such as prescriptions, ongoing or recurrent issues, and general enquiries, are made on other weekdays whenever possible.

Thank you for helping us keep care available for those who need it most.

Local and NHS services

The surgery works in partnership with local and NHS service providers and groups.

111 is the NHS non-emergency number. It’s fast, easy and free. Call 111 and speak to a highly trained adviser, supported by healthcare professionals. They will ask you a series of questions to assess your symptoms and immediately direct you to the best medical care for you.

NHS 111 is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Calls are free from landlines and mobile phones.

In case of a life-threatening emergency, please dial 999.
