About the surgery

Magdalen Medical Practice’s history goes back to just after the First World War and the partnership has held on to the best traditions of family medicine while embracing important modern developments.

The surgery is spacious, comfortable and modern. It lies in the north of the City, a quarter of a mile beyond Magdalen Gates. It is a single-storey building with a car-park, easy access via automatic main entrance doors, hearing loop and facilities for the disabled. Our catchment area includes Catton, Sprowston, Spixworth and Heartsease, as shown on the map on our practice boundary page.

Values

Combining traditional values of general practice with innovation and high standards to offer quality personalised patient care.

We endeavour to develop and maintain good quality individual patient care, providing all standard core primary care services and developing a range of enhanced services that are consistent with modern general practice.

We aim for all members of the practice to work in a harmonious environment where they feel valued, respected and mutually supported.

We aspire to be a respected practice in the community where patients see us as conscientious, trustworthy and reliable. We also aim to be respected by other healthcare professionals, both clinical and managerial.

We are committed to training future doctors to provide the best possible patient centered care for the future

We wish to maintain the traditional values of a named family doctor to provide continuity of care for patients as well as embrace innovations to provide best access for urgent medical problems.
