Non-urgent advice: What to do when we’re closed
When the practice is closed, there is an out of hours’ emergency medical service available at all times. This service is meant for urgent and emergency problems and should not be used to avoid the inconvenience of consulting during the day. If you need out of hours help, you should telephone 111 which is a free-phone number nationwide. Trained staff located at the call control centre will handle your enquiry.
If you need an urgent appointment at the weekend please ring: 0191 4862195 to book an appointment in a Hub.
Calls to 111 are FREE from landlines and mobiles and are available 24/7, 365 days per year.
Remember the Out of Hours Service is for urgent problems only. Please do not contact the service for a second opinion or for anything which can wait until the next working day.
If you have a minor ailment you could visit your local pharmacy who will be able to provide you with some help or signpost you onto the next available service.
During normal practice opening hours, the practice remains your first point of contact for all routine requests.
In a genuine emergency you should call 999. Chest pains and / or shortness of breath constitute an emergency.
