Welcome To The Swineshead Medical Group Practice

If you have just joined the practice, please take time to browse this site and keep the site address for future reference. It has been designed to offer a useful guide to the services we offer.

When you join the practice, we will request your medical notes from your previous GP. These may take some time to arrive, and to help us ensure that you receive the best possible care in the meantime, we ask that:

• You complete a new patient questionnaire, on behalf of yourself and for other members of your family.
• You book an appointment to have a (free) new patient medical with the practice health care assistant.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask any of the receptionists, who will be pleased to help.

About The Practice

The Swineshead Medical Group was formed with three partners in 1978 when the Swineshead and Donington practices combined. The practice has steadily grown since that time in terms of the number of patients served and the range of services offered. There are now 4¾ partners, one of whom is female.

Over 9,000 patients are served from our purpose-built surgery which opened in the summer of 2005. We dispense medicines to 45% of our patients despite the villages of Swineshead and Donington both having a pharmacy.

The practice offers a wide range of services; it became a training practice in 1994, and since then a number of young doctors have completed their general practice training with us.

The practice is a designated Yellow Fever Vaccination Centre.

Our experienced health care team aims to provide a first class service at all times.
