Island Health Line

If you think you need the urgent help of a doctor outside of normal surgery hours, you should contact the Island's Health Line on: 0845 6031 007 (calls to this number are charged at the BT Lo-call rate). All calls will be handled on the Island by highly trained NHS staff. Please only use this service if your needs are urgent and cannot wait until the next time your GP surgery is open.

If you need emergency dental care, you should contact the Island’s Health Line on 0845 050 8345.

NHS Direct is available for healthcare advice and information - their number is 0845 4647.

In an emergency, such as loss of consciousness, severe chest pain, serious accidents or serious loss of blood, call 999 or visit A&E.

Disabled Access

At Freshwater, our Queens Road entrance is suitable for disabled access and has two disabled parking bays. For other parking, please use the public car park in Moa Place, as the rear car park is for doctors, staff parking and ambulance access only. Staff can assist patients if a wheelchair is required.

Both the Freshwater and Yarmouth premises comply fully with requirements for the disabled and provide disabled toilets and T-Loop hearing system at Freshwater.
