Surgery Times

WHEN THE SURGERY IS CLOSED

We do not shut at lunchtime except on Tuesdays, ie between 1.00pm and 3.00pm (for staff training). When the surgery is closed phone always phone the surgery number 838355 (Bradeley) or 834288 (Smallthorne). An answer machine will give you clear instructions on how to contact a doctor. Urgent Care based in Basford provides the out-of-hours service.

In the event of an acute emergency, eg chest pain, ring 999 immediately.
