Out of Hours
Out of hours GP services are arranged by North Tyneside Primary Care Trust and are provided by qualified doctors and nurses. You may receive telephone advice from a doctor or be asked to attend a local primary care centre for an examination. If, for medical reasons, travel is impossible, a home visit from a doctor can be arranged. For out of hours services please telephone 0300 123 4343.

Telephone advice/consultations
Sometimes you may want to speak to a doctor or nurse about something but do not need to come into the surgery for a  face-to-face appointment.

If you would like to talk to someone over the phone, you can contact reception, who will take your number and arrange a suitable time

Cancelling your Appointment
If you are unable to attend an appointment with one of the doctors or nurses, please telephone or use the link at the bottom of this page to cancel your appointment.

Self help advice

There are some very useful websites which can help you with advice on wellbeing.  We recommend www.getselfhelp.co.uk where there are leaflets and worksheets to help you with range of problems.  The leaflets on anxiety and depression are particularly good. 

 

Good quality booklets and leaflets are also available from www.ntw.nhs.uk - the leaflets on depression and alcohol are ones we use reguarly but you will find many others to help.
