Wednesday Closing
The Practice is closed ONCE a month for staff development and training. Our Doctors, Nursing and administrative staff do need time to train together, which is vital to improve service delivery. The next date is Wednesday 22nd May 2013. We DO NOT close on other Wednesday afternoons.
