When We Are Closed

Lagandoc, the local out of hours service, looks after the urgent needs of patients from 6.00pm to 8.00am weekdays, and throughout weekends and bank holidays. To access this service please telephone 028 9260 2204. If you ring the Practice when we are closed, this number is provided as a recorded message.

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.
