By all means call us if you want some medical advice.     However, our phone lines might be busy.  There are alternative and more quicker ways of getting advice.

NHS Direct is also happy to take your calls.    In fact, giving advice over the telephone is their expertise.    They will tell you whether they think you need to see a doctor in person or whether they can give you some good medical advice (as good as we would give you) over the phone.

To call NHS Direct, ring 0845 4647

For health advice and reassurance, 24 hours a day. 365 days a year.
