A phone call to the surgery also led to an automated voicemail informing the public that it has been closed for a foreseeable future due to the fire.

Messages of support and well wishes for the surgery have since poured in with many hoping the building can be saved and get up and running again.

Nottinghamshire police and the fire service have been contacted for more details on the incident.
