About the surgery

Mission statement

Our aim is to provide a comprehensive, friendly, professional and personal primary health care service with time to discuss our patients’ health care concerns.

We will make it as easy as possible for our patients to make an appointment to see their doctor, nurse or other health care professional whilst meeting targets set by the Government.

We are actively involved in both the training and professional development of all members of the healthcare team.  This includes undergraduate and post graduate training of both doctors and nurses.

We strive to be part of our local community and a centre for excellence in the provision of Primary Health Care with ‘in house’ provision of a range of medical services.  We will provide this service by maintaining an efficient and effective business.
