When We Are Closed
An emergency service is available evenings and weekends - please telephone 0845 6710 270.
Doctors from Exmouth and Exeter work in shifts to cover the out-of-hours service. There is a treatment centre at Exmouth Hospital and a doctor can visit you at home when an emergency arises. Any telephone calls received when the surgery is closed will be diverted to the out-of-hours service.
NHS Direct
In the case of urgent need when the practice is closed you can call
NHS Direct (0845 4647) to speak to a triage nurse. Your needs will be assessed and advice offered or arrangements made for you to see a doctor.
Please do not ask to see a doctor out-of-hours unless you genuinely cannot wait until the surgery re-opens.
Call 999 in an emergency. Chest pains and / or shortness of breath constitute an emergency.
