Our phone lines are open Monday to Friday, 08:00-13:00 & 14:00-18:00.

Changes to Extended Hours

The practice has decided, with regret, to cease opening on Monday evenings and alternate Saturday mornings from the beginning of April.

The additional sum we receive for this does not cover our costs and is not likely to be increased in the future regardless of increasing staff costs.

You will still have access to out of hours care through 111.nhs.uk. This service is for patients over the age of 5 only. To get help for an under 5 the parent/carer will still need to phone NHS 111.

Out of Hours Service

Between 18:00 and 18:30

Please call the surgery on 01525 715300 and you will be re-directed to the on call GP.

Between 18:30 and 08:00

If you need to see a doctor urgently when the surgery is closed please visit NHS111 Online. NHS 111 and the Out of Hours Service are now working together to provide the ‘out-of-hours’ service on behalf of NHS Bedfordshire. Their service is staffed by a team of full trained advisers who will direct you towards the service you need, including being seen by a clinician or directing you to the local community service which can help you the best. That could be your local A&E, an urgent primary care centre or a walk in centre, an emergency dentist or a late opening chemist.

Whatever the day or time, if you or someone else experiences severe chest pain, loss of blood or suspected broken bones, you should go to your nearest accident and emergency department or call 999.
