About us
We are a high achieving training, part dispensing GMS practice delivering a wide range of services to our 9,700 patients by our team.
We are proud of our caring ethos and the friendly and supportive environment within which our team works. We often receive feedback from our pool of regular GP locums about how much they enjoy working with us. We work collaboratively with the other 2 practices in Oswestry and operate from purpose-built premises with parking facilities for staff. We are rated Good by the Care Quality Commission. We are also proud of the fact that we work together and support each other as a team to ensure that we all enjoy a sensible work/life balance.
We provide the usual range of GMS primary care services and Locally Commissioned Services including coil clinics and phlebotomy. We offer our patients a choice of 15-minute face-to-face appointments or 10-minute telephone consultations. We are proud of how we communicate with each other which is underpinned by our daily lunchtime clinical huddles. We were one of the first practices in Shropshire to introduce the role of GP Assistant and our GPs now wonder how they ever got through the working day without that support.
The practice is an active member of the North Shropshire Primary Care Network. We are an EMiS practice and have just switched our document management from Docman to Anima.
