Welcome:
Newmarket Medical Practice opened at its present site in the spring of 2001. The partners had previously practised in Bridge Street Surgery where there had been a practice for over 150 years. We have an open list and accept patients living up to nine miles from the surgery. The doctors work as a partnership and you may usually consult the doctor of your choice.
Changes can be seen within all aspects of the NHS in order to meet current demands.Newmarket Medical Practice is constantly assessing the needs of the local population and evaluating the services it offers. Therefore you may find that services change from time to time to reflect local demands. We aim to communicate these to you through our regular newsletters.
Newmarket Medical Practice has many clinics for different areas of health including: General nursing clinic, phlebotomy, anticoagulant monitoring, community nursings service, maternity. In addition specialised clinics are in operation: Minor operations, family planning, teenage health advice centre and well person screening

Named accountable GP
As a patient at Newmarket Medical Practice you have a named GP who is responsible for your overall care at the practice. This information will be given to you at the time of registration. The allocation process is calculated on a pro rata basis to ensure the workload for each GP is proportionate to the number of sessions they work per week.
This information is displayed on your computer record and on repeat prescriptions as your USUAL GP. If for any reason a GP leaves the practice you will be informed via the practice Newsletter that a re-allocation has taken place. However please be assured that you are entitled to see any of the GPs at the practice.
It's that season again...

Hearing Impairment:
The surgery provide a hearing loop system at the main reception desk. We also have a portable hearing loop which can be used in any part of the surgery to assist patients during consultations. We operate a patient call screen in our waiting room as a visual aid for our patients.
Patients can now order their repeat prescription and book a number of appointments online. We have introduced a text messaging service to remind patients of their appointment date and time. We hope to expand this service in the future to assist out hearing impaired patients.
Patients that have hearing aids can now bring along their book and receive new batteries at our Dispensary instead of the going to hospital. We stock most popular brands in, however if you require a different type we can order them in for you. We can usually get them in within the week. This is proving to be yet another popular service we provide to our patients.
