Who else you might see at our practice?

Alongside GPs and nurses, there are a number of other healthcare professionals that support our patients at the practice. They help us proactively address your health needs and increase your access to Primary Care. These roles form what is known as the Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme (ARRS) which was introduced into the NHS in 2019. You can read more about AARS here.

Complaints and Feedback

We welcome all comments on the services provided by the Practice. 

We are continually looking to turn out patients’ feedback into real improvements in the services we provide. We use it to focus on the things that matter most to our patients, carers and their families. 

We would like to hear from you if you have a suggestion on how we can do things better to improve our patients’ experiences. We’d also like to hear from you if you are pleased with the service you’ve received. 

We’ll let the staff involved know and share the good practice across our teams. 

You may write to us or contact us by phone or fax. 

Our details can be found on our Contact Us page.
