We are very proud and honoured to have been recognised for this award by the Royal College of General Practitioners.

Trainee GP
We are delighted to announce that from Wednesday 3rd August 2016 we will be a Training Practice. As a Training Practice we will have a Specialist GP Trainee working within the Practice. As part of their ongoing education there may be occasions when they are required to video consultatins for training purposes. Patients will be informed in advance of this occurring and if they do not wish to take part their wishes will be respected. Our Trainee is Dr Sally Reeves who will be with us until August 2017. She will see patients the same way as the other GP's. We all wish her well in her new venture and welcome her to our team at Garscadden Burn Medical Practice.
