Consolidating Branches - Updated FAQs

Since announcing a possible consolidation of existing services in late 2023, staff at Christchurch Medical Practice have been inviting feedback and questions from registered patients who have raised their concerns from ongoing care and waiting times through to the number of parking spaces.

To help reassure patients about the future, senior GP partner Dr Clive Quinnell has created a series of videos which are available online, answering some key questions.

For those who do not have internet access, the videos have also been produced as a handout which is available at all current Christchurch Medical Practice sites.

Dr Quinnell explains “We are acutely aware that some of our registered patients have concerns about the future, but we want to reassure them that despite a possible change of venue they will continue to receive the best possible care we can offer.

“I would personally like to thank everyone who has contacted us with questions and would encourage all our patients to watch the videos or pop into the practice so they can get their questions answered, and if they haven’t already been asked to get in touch.”

Further information on how to get in touch can be found on the Christchurch Medical Practice website https://www.christchurchmedicalpractice.nhs.uk/information/news/939/ or by calling in to your usual surgery.
