The Patient Participation Group

This was set up in early 2002 because we wanted to be responsive to the desires of the patients who use the service. Very quickly it produced ideas and it continues to be an important part of the practice.

Please get in touch if you wish to join the group and help shape the future of the Practice and its services.



Objectives of the Patient Participation Group

  • To be a communication link between the surgery management and patients, for non-clinical issues.

  • To be the representative voice of patients to the surgery management.
