From the 1st of April 2015, the practice is required under the terms of the latest GP contract to allocate all patients a named accountable GP.
This is purely an administrative exercise in order that patients can have a named responsible GP should they require them.
Should you wish to discuss this procedure, please speak to the receptionists or Clinician when you are next in the surgery.
Having a named GP does not prevent you seeing any other doctor in the practice. Your named GP will not be available at all times and if your needs are urgent, you may need to discuss them with an alternative doctor.
