Surgery TimesWe run a full appointment system. The surgery is open:
Out Of HoursAt evenings and weekends, when the surgery is closed, medical and nursing cover is provided by Harmoni. If you need attention during these hours, please call 0300 130 1313. If you have an emergency, for example if you suspect you are having a heart attack, a stroke (by developing weakness of your face or arms, or a sudden difficulty in speaking), or are losing large amounts of blood, please call 999 directly. This out-of-hours service should only be used for genuine medical emergencies and NOT for routine medical enquiries. EmergenciesIf you are confronted by a serious problem such as acute chest pain or severe bleeding, call an ambulance (Tel: 999) before calling the surgery. Our aim is to arrange for you to see Dr Shlosberg, his deputy or a Practice Nurse within 48 hours. Our Medical Receptionists are available to speak to you personally or on the telephone throughout practice opening hours, and they are specially trained to assist you to see Dr Shlosberg or a Practice Nurse as quickly as possible. Please only ask for an emergency appointment when the problem is really urgent. |
