Routine GP appointments are set to be suspended over three afternoons while GPs doctors attend training sessions.
No routine slots will be available between 12:30 and 18:00 BST at three surgeries on Wednesday, at five practices on Thursday and at a further three surgeries on the following Wednesday.
But the affected practices will remain open for patients to book future appointments or collect of repeat prescriptions and test results.
Manx Care said anyone who needs a doctor urgently should ring their surgery to speak to an on-call GP, or dial 999 in an emergency.
