HEALTH bosses are asking for the public's feedback on the out of hours service, which was launched in April 2004.
The Darlington Patient & Public Involvement Forum (PPIF) has been working with Darlington Primary Care Trust (PCT) to evaluate the service.
The out of hours service is for patients who need to see a doctor when their surgery is closed and they cannot wait.
The first contact is by telephone and, if necessary, an appointment is made at the urgent care centre at Darlington Memorial Hospital. Transport for those who need it can be provided.
The PPIF and the PCT have produced a patient evaluation form to assess how the public views the service.
Jean Thurkettle, from PPIF, said: "We want a top quality service for the people of Darlington, and we will only achieve it if you tell us off your experiences in this field. If you have used it please contact us and tell us what you thought of it, your point of view really matters."
Those who are interested in filling in the patient evaluation form are asked to contact Jane King, the Patient & Public Involvement Forum Co-ordinator for Darlington on (01325) 327463.
