   jane reported unknown with the number 08006783393 as trustworthy number

   This is an NHS number ringing to confirm an appointment; I'm guessing that they are VERY fed up with non-attendees! I have received several automated calls from this number asking me to confirm my name and appointment time.

   Peter reported number 08006783393 with score 9

   I have seen that this is supposed to be an NHS call but I don't stay in Glasgow, I am not waiting on an appointment and they called my business number not my house number, so I would avoid.

   Fahid reported NHS number with the number 08006783393 as trustworthy number

   I called my GP(Glasgow) who wasnt available at the time so I left my number with the receptionist requesting a call back. This was the number 08006783393 that was used for the call back I recieved.
   Makes sense that you can't call this number otherwise the GPs phone would keep going off while in his/her office seeing to patients.

   My specialist called me from Raigmore Hospital, Inverness on this number. A very good idea as it still keeps your personal life confidential. I block all 08 numbers except 0800.

   Also getting missed calls from this number, I also have different medical referrals. When I have a missed call I will phone back but not possible when it does not accept incoming calls. Yes very frustrating, unhelpful and worrying.

   This is the number for any call from NHS Scotland. The system cannot leave any messages as it would be a breach of patient confidentiality if anyone was to pick up the message.
   The number will not accept incoming calls.

    Just Me reported number 08006783393 as unknown

    Was a missed call. As people say it's NHS and I have had this kind of call before I think it is likely to be a reminder to have routine tests or scans. Sometimes they also call on a generic NHS number you to give you blood test results. It could be the nurse from the local health centre who took your blood or to remind you to get your blood pressure checked if you have failed to respond to a couple of reminders.

    Just Me Again replied 2017-10-13 16:55:54

    For information, they will want you to get the following health checks and may phone you if you neglect to get them done:
    Over 40: blood pressure
    Over 50: bowel screen
    Female over 50: breast scan
    Male over 50: blood test for prostate specific antigen

    Me Yet Again replied 2017-10-13 17:07:45

    And forgot to add:
    Female every 3 years: cervical smear test.
    All of above tests could be reminders to get them or else follow-up on results, sometimes because they didn't get a clear picture and may wish to repeat it.

    Wondering reported number 08006783393 as unknown

    I'm guessing it's trustworthy as other people are saying it's the NHS but I haven't been able to retrieve messages on my mobile since I set up a contract so I don't know what it's about. Probably health centre wanting me to come in for routine tests. Got a text saying a message had been left on a couple of occasions a few days apart but when I finally got access to my voicemail it said I had no messages so I don't know if they reached my voicemail without leaving a message or if they did leave a message but I tried to retrieve it too late. Finally after some searching online I found out how to access my voicemail so if they try to contact me again I'll be able to access my voicemail sooner and find out if they did leave a message.

    I work in NHS. This is a number used by many different NHS regions and departments. If they do not leave a message is because they can't be sure they have the correct number and that you are the person they need to speak to about a health matter, they shouldn't leave personal health information on a voicemail.

    I received a call from this number today on my mobile. When I got ho me my husband told me that he had spoken to someone from our local hospital who wanted to speak to me. Well, hard luck, because I have a Call Bloocker app, and it is set so that only those in my contacts list can get through to me! I occasionally leave it off if am expecting a call from someone who is not in my contacts list, but otherwise, it is on at all times. No more unsolicited calls, thankfully!

    the number doesn't accept incoming calls because you need to go via the switch board in your local hospital to speak to anyone in the hospital.
