Emergency Consultations
We are a busy practice, and providing Emergency same day appointments makes it easier for you to see a doctor quickly. These emergency 5-minute appointments are bookable on the day and offered from 9.00 a.m. to 11.00 a.m. and again from 4.30 p.m. daily (except for Bank Holidays and weekends). You should attend the Emergency Surgery only if you have an urgent problem and must see a doctor the same day; you may have to wait some time (in turn). Please do not abuse this service.
Out of Hours
If you need to see a doctor urgently when the surgery is closed please telephone 111. You will be put through to the NHS 111 Out of Hours service who provides the ‘out-of-hours’ service on behalf of NHS Hampshire. They will pass a message to the doctor on duty who may phone you to assess your problem. You might be asked to attend the out-of-hours clinic, or receive a home visit.

At any time of day or night, you can call 111 for free expert health information and advice.
