Our Practice and The Modern General Practice Model
The Modern General Practice (MGP) model is designed to provide fair and personalised care by connecting you to the right healthcare professional based on your needs. This might include seeing a nurse, pharmacist, or healthcare assistant who is best suited to help with your specific situation. If your care requires a GP, you will be directed to them. This ensures you get the right support, from the right person, at the right time.
