Named Accountable GP

Important Patient Information

As part of the new 2015/16 General Medical Services contract, ALL patients, (including children), should be informed that they have been allocated a named GP and this GP will be responsible for your overall care at the practice.

So what does this mean for you?

All our patients are allocated a named doctor. This does not mean you can only see this GP, as a Park Medical Practice patient you are quite within your rights to book, in advance, with the doctor you choose to see or continue to see the GP who is available on the day. Therefore you should see no change in the day to day running of the practice or your care.

However, if you wish to know who your allocated named GP is, you will find it at the bottom of the tear off slip of your prescription or we can give you this information at your request when you next attend the surgery or by contacting us. If you would like your allocated named GP changing we will make reasonable efforts to accommodate your request.

Please remember this DOES NOT affect which doctor you usually see at the practice.
