Emergencies & Home Visits

Emergency Care

In an extreme emergency please phone 999 for an ambulance.
If you need a doctor urgently when the surgery is closed please dial the surgery number 0844 477 3939. You will be put straight through to Urgent Care Cambridgeshire (UCC) , which is the local out of hours emergency care service. It is manned by local GPs and practice nurses and you will receive advice/treatment on the telephone or at Chesterton Medical Centre. If necessary you will receive a home visit.

Home Visits

Home visits are reserved for those who are too frail or unwell to come into the surgery. If you feel a visit is necessary, please telephone as early in the day as possible, preferably by 10:30am. All visit requests will be directed to the duty GP. If at all possible we ask that you attend the surgery and any request for a home visit will be assessed by the duty doctor.
