Practice

Practice Area

The partnership of Drs Machen, Ryecart, Turner, Fraser, Cruickshank, Vorster and Barratt is contracted to provide general medical services to patients registered with our practice and temporary residents within our practice boundary. We also provide immediately necessary treatment for any person not registered with the practice who has an urgent medical problem within our practice boundary.

We cover Hitchin and a wide area of surrounding villages primarily to the south and west. These are Charlton, Gosmore, Holwell, Ickleford, Offley, Pirton, Preston and St Ippolyts.
(please see map on display at the surgery).

We do not accept applications from patients living in any other villages including Codicote, Whitwell, Kings Walden, Little Wymondley, Lilley, Shillington, Barton or any other village over the Bedfordshire border.

Parking

There is one parking space at the rear of the building for disabled
patients holding a blue badge. The remaining spaces are for the use of doctors and nurses. There is a public car park on Bancroft opposite the surgery.

Disabled Facilities

  • We are mainly on the ground floor and have no steps. There is a lift to the 1st floor if needed.
  • A disabled toilet is available.
  • We have a portable loop system available for the hard of hearing. This is a voice amplification system designed to assist hearing impaired people who use hearing aids. By switching the hearing aid to the "T" position, the hearing aid picks up clear speech signals. Please ask at Reception if you would like to use this system.

Extra Doctor

Please note that we are approved under the GP Retainer
Scheme and therefore will from time to time have a fully trained doctor working with us on a part-time basis.

GP Training

The surgery is approved as having the high standard
required to be a training practice. This means that we will have a fully qualified doctor (G.P. registrar) with us for twelve months at a time to learn the finer points of general practice.
