GP Practices

Menu

    GPs deal with a whole range of health problems including:

    • Conditions that can’t be treated with over the counter medication or advice from a Pharmacist
    • Coughs lasting more than three weeks
    • New moles appearing or existing moles changing shape, size or colour

    They also provide health education, offer advice on smoking and diet, run clinics, give vaccinations and carry out simple surgical operations.

    A range of health care professionals work at GP practices, including GPs, nurses, healthcare assistants, practice managers, receptionists and other staff. Practices also work closely with health visitors, midwives, mental health services and social care services.

    If the health professional you see cannot deal with a problem, then you’ll usually be referred to a hospital for tests, treatment, or to see a consultant with specialist knowledge.
