Welcome to the Victoria Cross Surgery Website

At Victoria Cross Surgery we pride ourselves on offering a wide range of health care services to our patients.
 
In addition to being fully qualified in general practice, our five doctors have specialist expertise in a range of medical conditions. Our team of nurses, health care assistants and phlebotomists enables us to provide excellent clinical care to our patients.
 
We are based on two sites. Our main surgery in Victoria Road is convenient for the town centre and Old Town and offers late evening opening until 8.00pm on two evenings per week. Our small branch surgery in Nythe has recently been refurbished and provides a friendly personal service to Nythe residents.
 
Both our surgeries are rooted in the communities they serve and our buildings reflect the character of the local area. We will ensure that we provide consultations with our doctors and nurses in downstairs rooms that are accessible to people with mobility problems. Assistance will always be given by our staff when needed.
 
New patients are welcome at both sites. Drop into the surgery during opening hours and our friendly receptionists will give you a registration form to complete and offer you an appointment with a health care assistant for a new patient check-up.
 
We hope you will find this website a useful source of information about our practice and a useful resource for other health care information.
