WELCOME TO BYFIELD MEDICAL CENTREHISTORYOur
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. Practice News and Notices

Important announcement
Dr. Nicola Moerdyk
Dr. D. F. Burton and Partners are delighted to announce the appointment of Dr. Nicola Moerdyk as a Partner at Byfield Medical Centre. Dr. Moerdyk will be succeeding Dr. Burton upon his retirement at the end of March.
Following Dr. Moerdyk’s arrival at Byfield Medical Centre last August, the Partners were immediately impressed by the way in which Dr. Moerdyk settled in to life at the surgery. Upon becoming aware of Dr. Burton’s decision to retire from General Practice at the end of March 2013, it was a straightforward decision for the Partners to approach Dr. Moerdyk to see if she wished to make her stay at Byfield more permanent. The Partners are delighted to announce that Dr. Moerdyk accepted the invitation and she will therefore become a Partner at the beginning of April 2013.
At that time new patients to the practice will be able to register with Dr. Moerdyk. As has always been the case at Byfield Medical Centre, registration with a particular GP does not prevent a patient from seeing another GP within the practice of their own choice.
FOR PATIENT INFORMATION PURPOSES REGISTERED DOCTOR On the occasion of Dr. Burton's retirement, it is intended that those patients who are presently registered with Dr. Burton will be divided between the remaining three Partners as follows according to the initial letter of each patient’s surname. Dr. Bone - letters A and B;
Dr. Harvey – letters C to S inclusive;
Dr. Nawaz – letters T to Z inclusive.
This is purely for administrative purposes only. Patients will receive written confirmation of their new registered GP from NHS Northamptonshire in due course.
Registration with a particular GP does not prevent a patient from seeing any GP of their choice.
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. For more information on the Summary Care Record, visit www.northamptonshire.nhs.uk/scr or www.nhscarerecords.nhs.uk or telephone the dedicated NHS Summary Care Record Information Line on 0300 123 3020 where an operator will be available to answer any queries you may have.
