Bank Holidays and Staff Training

Our practice will be closed on certain afternoons during the year for  Staff Training days - dates will be published in advance in the surgery and on the website. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause you at the time, but when the surgery is closed we ask that at all times if you do need an Emergency Dr do not hesitate to call NHS111.
