Our practice serves around 3,500 patients, with a range of chronic and acute problems – no one day is the same! Our patients are friendly, down to earth, and appreciate their local surgery, and the staff who work in them, as can be seen by the high achievement score received through the National survey

We are supported by a fantastic administration team led by our Practice Manager, which has a mix of youth and experience. No GP can do their job without a great team behind them, and luckily at Wingate Surgery, we believe we have that.
