Outside of surgery hours you need to ring NHS 111 who will direct you to the Out of Hours provider covering the surgery. You are unlikely to speak to your own GP out of hours.
Wherever possible, please use NHS 111 and Out of Hours service in preference to attending hospital Accident and Emergency departments. A&E should only be used for accidents, injuries, and medical emergencies requiring immediate treatment.

NHS 111
NHS 111 is a telephone service for people to call if they need medical help fast but are not in a life-threatening situation.
The easy to remember phone number - that is available across the country - has been introduced to help people get the right help, at the right time, especially at weekends and out of hours.
NHS 111 is free to call and is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
The service is available for people who aren't sure if they need to go to A&E, need more information about where to get NHS help or generally need reassurance and advice.
By calling NHS 111, you will reach a team of fully trained advisers, and experienced nurses and doctors who will assess your condition and direct you to the local service that can help you best, when you need it.
