When We Are Closed

 
Call 999 in an emergency.

Chest pains, shortness of breath, acute onset of facial or one sided weakness are examples of symptoms that would constitute an emergency.

 
When we are closed overnight and at weekends, you should call 111 for advice and to arrange an out of hours GP consultation if appropriate.

Urgent out of hours matters are dealt with by Medvivo.

Please call 111 or follow the instructions on the answering message of the main surgery telephone number. You can also access 111 online.

You may be asked to attend the Primary Care Centre located at Chippenham Hospital.
