Phone Opening Hours
Our phone lines are open Monday to Friday from 8:00am to 12:00pm and then from 2:00pm to 6:00pm
Our phones can be incredibly busy, often with over 400 calls per day. Please be kind and patient with our Reception Team.
We strongly recommend using the option to receive a call-back to save you waiting in a queue if the phone system offers this service to you. (This is usually available until 11:45am in the morning and until 4:45pm in the afternoon). Note that there may be several phone queues happening at any one time - so when the phone system say you are number x in the queue - it will be for the option that you have chosen. There will be other callers queuing for other options at the same time.
Please note: We only take emergency calls between 12:00 and 2:00pm and between 6pm and 6:30pm

Pharmacy & Self-Care
Pharmacists are qualified healthcare professionals who can offer clinical advice, over the counter medicines and their use, to effectively and safely manage a range of minor health concerns. They can also help you to decide whether you'll need to see a doctor. You don't need an appointment and you won't even be asked to make a purchase. Every pharmacy also has a private consultation area for you to talk about your symptoms in private if you prefer.
