Islip Medical Practice

04/11/2026

This Remembrance, we’re proud to stand alongside the veterans in our community. 🎖️

We know this can be a difficult time for many veterans and their families. As a Veteran Friendly Accredited GP practice, our team is trained to understand the health needs veterans may have, and we’re here if you need us.

We can refer you to specialist NHS veteran services, including Op COURAGE for mental health and Op RESTORE for physical health. These are run by people who understand the Armed Forces and can help you get the right care and support.

If you’ve served in the Armed Forces, no matter when or for how long, please let us know. It helps us make sure you get the right care, if and when you need it.
