About GPs

Local doctors or general practitioners (GPs), provide an essential service for all local people. They are the first port of call for many people when they develop a health problem. They provide many services, such as:

  • General health advice and treatment
  • Vaccinations
  • Contraception and maternity services

It is important to be registered with a GP as they can also help you gain access to specialist hospital and community health services if you need them.
