Practice Premises and Location
The original house was extended to provide extensive and modern medical treatment areas. The old part of the house is used exclusively by the administrative and clerical staff and also provides office accommodation for the District Nurses and Health Visitors attached to the Practice. Our extension is single storey therefore there are no stairs or lifts and we are able to offer easy and wide access for the elderly and disabled patients and to parents using pushchairs and prams. The new extension also boasts a large waiting room with plenty of seating for patients and a separate children's play area.
There is also a purpose built
toilet for the disabled and baby changing facilities. We have seven well equipped
consulting rooms and a suite of treatment rooms which include a general nurses
treatment room, a phlebotomist's room and a minor operations' room. The Practice
Dispensary is located centrally in the patient area. Our dispensary waiting
room is opposite to allow patients to wait in comfort whilst their medication
is dispensed. - . The Alistair Suite (named after our founder) is at
the end of the doctors' corridor and is used by Physiotherapists and the Health
Visitors for baby clinics. Car parking There are two car parks
at the Surgery. One is exclusively for doctors and staff use. Our patient
car park has 3 disabled bays and patients are usually able to park with ease. Boundaries for registration
The Practice has grown
steadily over the years and we now have 9000 patients registered. We provide
a fully comprehensive medical service to our patients which includes visiting
their homes when medically indicated. It is therefore necessary for us to
register patients in an area with which we are able to administer emergency
care with safety. Our Practice area has a radius of approximately 5.5 miles
from the centre of Bourne. The Practice is situated 300 yards from the bus
station and we will try to fit appointments to suit bus services from surrounding
villages if you have no alternative transport. The boundaries for registering
patients boundaries for registering patients are indicated on the map on the
