South Street Surgery is a close-knit practice where GPs, nurses and the wider practice team work collaboratively and genuinely know their patients. We have a supportive clinical team including GP Partners, an experienced nursing team, healthcare assistant and regular locum support, backed by an established and proactive administrative team. We are proud of the feedback we receive from our patients and have performed extremely well in both the national patient satisfaction survey and the Friends and Family test.
