Dr Loverock's retirement

As Dr Loverock has now retired his regular patients are now jockeying for position to see which GP they will end up seeing regularly instead.
Dr Thake is with us now finishing his GP Training before he joins the Doctors full time in August. He is the "official" replacement for Dr Loverock.
 He has worked as a Doctor for many years here and overseas but only in the last few years decided to do the official UK General Practice training, which he is now concluding.


The practice has also just changed one other technicality to do with registering patients.
Patients used to be registered with one or other partner, regardless of which Doctor they ended up seeing regularly.
We have now changed things so that all patients are registered with the practice rather than an individual Doctor.
Our computer system also allows patients to be allocated a "usual Doctor" and this is how we will now be dividing you up. This is the Doctor named at the bottom of your repeat prescriptions and the one who signs them.
If you feel you have been allocated the wrong "Usual Doctor", let us know and we'll change it.
