Welcome to our Home page. We are a five
doctor GMS general medical practice based in Hartlepool, a coastal town of
90,000 in Teesside, in North East of England. We operate from two NHS premises,
Grange House
Surgery and
Brierton
Medical Centre.
This web site is
intended to be a source of information about the practice for patients with
links to local and other medical www sites.
The practice is a member of Hartlepool PCT and
the GP
partners are Dr
Alison Eaton, Dr Patrick Mc Gowan, Dr Rachel Roberts and Dr Iyad Al
Mashharawi . We have an additional salaried GP working in
the practice, Dr John Sinclair. We are committed to providing a high standard of medical care in
a friendly caring atmosphere. We are a training practice for GP Registrars as
part of the Tees Valley Vocational Training Scheme and teach medical students
from the University of Newcastle. We are interested in quality, audit and in the
development of the use of computers in General Practice.
New Patients
Our
practice list is open and
we are accepting new patients.
If you live within our practice area and
wish to join our practice list, please phone or come along to the surgery for
further information. You will be asked to attend a new patient check with our
practice nurse and your
general health will be assessed from basic checks such as, weight, blood
pressure, urine and current medication.
We can only provide medical assistance to patients
registered with us under the National Health Service and would in all cases
suggest you contact your usual doctor if you need to discuss your medical
condition.

New
Surgery Premises
Work started in
February 2008 on a new multi-million
pound Hartlepool Community Health
Centre, which
is
being
developed as a LIFT project
by Hartlepool PCT
in the centre of town. It
is hoped that the town centre
development will expand
the range of health services
available for patients.
In
March 2010 we will be closing
the Grange House Surgery
site and moving into the
new Park Road primary care
centre. We will continue
to work from the Brierton
Medical Centre Site.
