Our dedicated team are here to treat those minor ailments that occur as well as providing specialist management of long-term conditions and clinics covering a wide range of healthcare issues. The technology also means you can now do a lot of things from the comfort of your home such as order a repeat prescription or cancel an appointment.

Our new Partners are Dr Ahmed (male), Dr Sefton (female) and Dr Allen (female).
Partners in Care
Once registered, patients and healthcare professionals work together to ensure the most appropriate care is provided. This partnership philosophy extends even further and our active patient group exists to make sure that patient needs and the practice offering are always heading in the same direction.

All patients registered with the practice have a named GP. This GP is responsible for your overall care at the practice. This doesn't mean that this is the GP you must see. If you have any questions about your named GP or indeed wish to change which GP you have been allocated, simply let a member of the Reception team know and we will be more than happy to make reasonable efforts to accommodate your request.
The national data opt-out is a service that allows patients to opt out of their confidential patient information being used for research and planning. For additional information, please follow this link https://digital.nhs.uk/services/national-data-opt-out
