The Out of Hours service
operates on weekdays from 6.30pm to

and Bank Holidays.
The Service
Harmoni is a service commissioned by the Primary
Care Trust for urgent treatment and
advice for problems arising outside
normal surgery hours. Unless you
have a sound medical reason for a
home visit, you will be given an
appointment at your local out of
hours base. Consultations are by
appointment only.
Call Harmoni on 0300 130 13 13.
GPs need to
ensure that their time is used as
efficiently as possible. Next time
you consider phoning your doctor
outside normal surgery hours please
think carefully. Do you really need
a doctor’s help immediately or can
it wait until the next regular
surgery? Consider phoning
NHS Direct.
