WELCOME TO BYFIELD MEDICAL CENTRE

 

HISTORY

Our practice came into being in November 1980 when Dr Burton joined Dr Middleton in partnership. In those days the surgery occupied three rooms at the back of the village hall. In August 1981 the present purpose-built premises were completed and later extended in 1990. Dr Bone joined the partnership in June 1997 and Dr Harvey in October 2001 (when Dr Middleton retired). The surgery team was joined by Dr Nawaz in November 2004.

Extended Opening Hours Service

 
Please be advised that the format of our Extended Opening Hours (EOH) service will be changing slightly with immediate effect. The EOH service provides a total of 4 hours EOH service provision each week. That level of service will not change.
 
Up until now the EOH service has operated on Tuesday and Thursday evenings each week with one doctor on duty between 18.30 hours and 20.30 hours. 
 
With immediate effect the EOH service will alternate each week between a Tuesday evening surgery and a Thursday evening surgery. The surgery will still run from 18.30 hours to 20.30 hours. The difference will be that there will be two doctors on duty each evening instead of one doctor as happens now.

EOH appointments are STRICTLY BY APPOINTMENT ONLY and subject to availability of appointments.  Please phone on 0844 477 8753 to arrange an appointment.

Summary Care Records - Your emergency care summary

The Public Information Programme is due to be rolled out in early February. This means all of our patients will receive a letter explaining what the Summary Care Record is, what it will contain, how it will be used and by whom. An opt out form will also be included with the letter. Children under 16 will automatically have a SCR created for them unless a parent or guardian chooses to opt them out.
