Confidentiality and Consent
As a Medical Centre, confidentiality is of utmost importance to us.
When you turn 18 years old, your parents will no longer be able to access your records or discuss any medical conditions with us without your written consent.
We also advise patients to book and cancel their own appointments to prevent any confidentiality issues and ensure you update your contact details with us throughout your time here.

Named/Accountable GP
All patients registered at the Medical Centre have a named doctor who has overall responsibility for your care and support. For the period of registrations August 2021 to August 2022 Dr Gill is your named accountable GP. Download our Named Accountable GP leaflet here for further information
Meningitis Vaccination for Freshers
Students aged between 17-24yrs and starting university are strongly recommended to have a booster Men ACWY vaccination (which has replaced the Meningitis C) if you didn’t receive one in school. This is because it is now known that your immunity to the disease will have decreased and your risk of catching the disease is higher. When you are registered please telephone us on 01509 277577 and arrange an immunisation appointment. Please follow the links below for further information:-
