Update on New Patient Enrolments
To ensure we continue providing safe, timely, and high‑quality care to the patients already under our care, our medical centre is temporarily unable to accept new clients. This decision allows our clinicians to maintain appropriate appointment availability, uphold clinical standards, and avoid extended wait times for existing patients.
This temporary pause does not apply to children of current clients. If you are an existing patient and wish to register your child, our reception team will be happy to assist with the enrolment process.
We understand that accessing healthcare can be challenging when local services reach capacity. Our team reviews our patient load regularly, and we will update this notice as soon as we are able to reopen to new clients. We appreciate your understanding and patience during this period.
If you have any questions about eligibility, appointment availability, or registering a child, please contact our reception team, who will be glad to help.

My regular GP Dr Carroll is not currently at the clinic and I was anxious to meet with a new doctor. Dr Andrew French was friendly and efficient. He made sure I had my necessary referrals, and making sure to ask any questions I had forgotten to address. I feel confident in having him as my new GP.Posted on Google Matthew MillarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
