Dublin

GP out of hours in Dublin.

Dublin has 5 GP out-of-hours services, and which one you use depends on your GP. Phone your own GP after hours: their recorded message gives the service to call. All are appointment only, so call before you travel. Free with a medical card or GP visit card.

The services

Which Dublin service a patient uses depends on their GP's membership; HSE advises phoning your own GP's out-of-hours message.
