Accountable / Named GP for All Patients

All patients registered at practice have a named doctor who has overall responsibility for your care and support. If you choose to see another doctor at the surgery you are entirely free to go on doing so exactly as before.

New patients (over the age of 5yrs) will be invited to attend a routine health check even though they may not have a current medical problem. Our healthcare assistants carry out most new patient screening medicals, health checks such as blood pressure, urine testing, weight and smoking cessation advice, HIV testing is now carried out at the new patient screening medical.

Children under the age of 5yrs are seen by the Health Visitors. When you are fully registered the Health Authority will send you a new NHS medical card, (not the surgery)
