Please note the surgery is closed for staff training from 12pm on Wednesday 5th November. Online requests will be switched off at 11.00am to allow GPs time to process them before we close and staff will be able to deal with urgent requests over the telephone up until 12pm. We will reopen as normal the following day. If you need medical help whilst we are closed, call 111 or visit 111.nhs.uk. If you need urgent medical help, call 999.

Industrial action in the NHS: We will be open as normal

We wanted to let patients know that The Grove Medical Group will be open as usual during the junior doctors’ strike this week (11th to 14th April).

Appointments and treatments at local hospitals may be affected, however please turn up for your appointment unless you have heard otherwise.

NHS services are expected to be very busy following the long bank holiday, we are here to help if needed.

If you are unsure the best way to get medical help, you can ask yourself some simple Yes/No questions to find the best option. Click or tap the button below for more.

Try our ‘What to do when you are unwell’ decision tree.

Please only call 999 for life-threatening emergencies.
