Doctors

General Practitioners (GPs) treat all common medical conditions and refer patients to hospitals and other medical services for urgent and specialist treatment. They focus on the health of the whole person combining physical, psychological, and social aspects of care.

We are a GP training practice. Each year a fully qualified doctor with experience in hospital medicine who is preparing to become a general practitioner joins the practice and spends up to a year working with us, sharing all aspects of medical care with the partners. We welcome the fresh ideas and the enthusiasm they bring to our team.

Occasionally, medical students or nurses training to become district nurses, health visitors or community midwives may also spend time with the practice.
