All patients at Whitwell Surgery are allocated a ‘usual GP’. This is a named, accountable doctor who is responsible for your overall care at the practice.
Your usual GP will be allocated to you by the practice. You can still talk to or make appointments to see any of our doctors or nurses, not just your named GP. If you are a registered patient, but are unsure who your usual GP is, you should contact your surgery.
If you wish to change your usual GP, please contact us, putting your request in writing. If you have a preference as to which GP you would prefer, the practice will make reasonable efforts to accommodate this request. However, this may not always be possible and we may have to assign a different GP.
