Named GP
Sandgate Road Surgery provides all patients with a named "usual GP" who will have overall responsibility for the care and support that the surgery provides to them. We encourage patients to try and see their usual GP where possible, particularly for ongoing problems.
We need to divide our patients evenly between all of our doctors, so they can manage their workload. Therefore the "registering GP" rotates from week to week based on each GP's list size. We try to keep families under the same usual GP where possible, so new babies will be registered with their mother's usual GP.
If you wish to be told the name of your usual GP, please ask the reception team when you are next at the surgery.
If you have any questions or wish to discuss this further with us, please contact us at 01303851241.
