Emergencies
In extremely serious situations requiring probable hospital admission (e.g. suspected heart attack, severe breathing difficulties, severe bleeding or an unconscious patient), dial 999 for an ambulance.
Out-of-hours services are generally busy so please think carefully before asking to see a doctor and only do so if you genuinely cannot wait until the surgery re-opens.
