Outside Surgery Hours

If you feel it very likely you will need to see an emergency doctor out of surgery hours, please telephone 0845-121-0209 and you will be put through to BrisDoc (Bristol South Doctors On Call).

This is a co-operative of doctors from GP surgeries in the South of Bristol, including Bedminster Family Practice, who provide an emergency service (telephone advice and, when necessary, face-to-face consultations or home visits) from 6.30pm – 8.00am on weekdays and during the whole weekend. BriSDoc is based at the Walk-in Centre, in Knowle unless your problem is one that you think can be dealt with by a nurse.

News Flash: Text messaging service: New from June 2009. We now can send text messages to patients as appointment reminders. To be able to do this we need your up to date mobile telephone number, please discuss with our reception team to ensure we hold the correct mobile number for you. If you would like to opt out of this service, please discuss this with our reception team
