Patient Notice

The practice will be having work carried out on our roof from Monday 1st June.

Due to health and safety requirements, we have been asked to close the patient car park whilst the work is taking place and we anticipate this could be for approximately 2 weeks.

Please be aware that parking will be unavailable during this time and we kindly ask patients to make alternative parking arrangements where possible.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding.

Our ECG machine has broken and is too costly to repair. This means we have had to cancel all ECG appointments. All patients impacted have been contacted.

Thank you to all that attended our carers event today organised by the three office learners at The Grove.

It was great to be able to chat to new people and gain new perspectives on all that carers do to support their loved ones and how we can help as a practice.

Special thanks to the lovely local businesses that donated raffle prizes to us and Gosforth Parish Hall that let us use their hall.

Take a look at our Quiet Corner, located down the main corridor (second turn on the left). This calm and comfortable space is available if you’d like a quiet place to breastfeed your baby or wait for your appointment away from the main waiting area.
A big thank you to our HCA, Carol, for bringing this thoughtful idea to life for the benefit of our patients.

This data shows just how busy we are and the wide range of work we are carrying out each day. Alongside seeing patients face to face and carrying out home visits, our staff are also handling hundreds of phone calls, reviewing test results, processing prescriptions, and managing incoming documents. The number of triage requests and incoming telephone calls reflect how many patients are reaching out for help and advice every day.

All of this work happens behind the scenes as well as in consultations, and it highlights the growing demand on GP services.

Our amazing team continue to work hard to provide safe, timely care while managing an increasing workload.
