We are an innovative, award winning and supportive training practice in Brierfield, East Lancashire and within easy reach of motorway links, cities, coast and countryside. We have a population of 7800 patients from a diverse population.

Within our partnership we also have local clinical leads who are leading national advisors on their clinical subjects. We would support GPs with similar passions.
Caring for our patients and their experience is at the forefront of everything we do. We nurture talent we motivate, encourage and inspire.
