Welcome to Bower Mount Medical Practice
The practice has been in continuous existence since the time of George III, and we have been at our present purpose built premises since March 2014. We provide a full range of primary care services, aiming for the best of care for all our patients. We are a training practice and we serve a population of approximately 12,000 patients.
New patients are registered with one of the GP partners. To maintain continuity of care, patients are encouraged to make appointments as required, with their registered doctor. More urgent problems may otherwise be dealt with on the day of presentation by the duty doctor on call for the day.
