Appointments with a range of professionals are now available at local GP surgeries

Local residents are set to benefit as GP surgery teams grow even more to provide a wider range of services.

Strengthening general practice is a central to plans across mid and south Essex.

The number of different professional and support staff working in our local GP surgeries has increased.  Since April 2022 we have welcomed a further 16 new professionals. This is in addition to over 300 additional professionals that have recently joined the GP teams in our local surgeries.
