When We Are Closed
Outside of normal surgery hours emergency GP cover is provided by Gwent Urgent Primary Care and GP Out-of-Hours Service 111. If you call the usual surgery number during these times a recorded message will also give you the contact details.
NHS Direct
Alternatively you can access urgent assistance by calling NHS Direct on 0845 4647. A triage nurse will assess your situation and take appropriate action. This could simply be by offering advice or where necessary by making arrangements for you to be seen by a doctor.
Out-of-hours services are generally busy so please think carefully before asking to see a doctor and only do so if you genuinely cannot wait until the surgery re-opens.
In a genuine emergency you should call 999. Chest pains and / or shortness of breath constitute an emergency.
