The surgery is equipped to treat minor injuries like small cuts and joint sprains. If the injury is more severe or may involve a broken bone then you should attend the Accident and Emergency (A&E) Department at The County Hospital (not 24 hour) or Royal Stoke University Hospital.

Also in the event of poisoning or overdose the attend A&E

Telephone the surgery on 01785 815 555

If you have an urgent medical problem and you do not have a booked appointment, arrangements will be made for you to be seen using our Same Day Urgent Care Service

This same day service is intended for urgent care only, either an urgent appointment or urgent telephone advice. If you are housebound please inform the receptionist at the beginning of your call.

This service is split between a few doctors on the day so we can rarely offer doctor choice in this urgent situation

We will ensure that all urgent problems are dealt with as soon as possible on the day they arise.

Please do not block other patients' need for this service by booking same day for routine matters.

Telephone the surgery on 01785 815 555

The GP out of Hours service operates when the surgery is closed.

If you require a doctor in an emergency outside of our normal working hours your call will automatically be transferred to a local call centre.

You may be offered advice over the telephone, in a treatment centre or in your own home. The treatment centre is based at:

Stafford Primary Care Centre 
Mid Staffordshire General Hospital 
Weston Road 
Stafford

Note: This is not a walk in centre and consultations are strictly by appointment.
