Welcome to Park Medical
THE PRACTICE OF PARK MEDICAL IS LOCATED IN THE
HEALTH CENTRE, GREAT JAMES STREET, IN THE CENTRE OF DERRY CITY.
THERE ARE 6 PARTNERS.
THE PRACTICE HAS A POPULATION OF 8160 PATIENTS.
The geographical area covered
by the practice includes the city of Derry and its environs within a ten-mile
radius of the practice premises, on the northern side of the border. The practice
provides the full range of general medical services including antenatal care,
child health surveillance, cervical cytology screening and minor surgery. Patients
can be referred to other more specialised services such as chiropody, physiotherapy
and speech therapy.
The name of the practice was chosen to reflect our premises'
close proximity to the beautiful local amenity, Brooke Park. It was felt that
this met the requirements of being identifiable with and by the local community
and by the patient population.

Disabled Access
Disabled patients are catered for in that all GP treatment rooms and practice
nurse rooms are on the ground floor, allowing easier access for wheelchairs.
There is a disabled toilet adjacent to the treatment room on the ground floor.
Car Parking
There is a car park adjacent to the health centre and another
public car park in nearby William Street. Patients are requested to use the health
centre car park only for the duration of their
appointment with the doctor, nurse or other health care professionals based at
the centre.
Please do not leave your car in the car park if you are going shopping. This
deprives other patients of the opportunity of parking when they have to see the
doctor.
Please observe all traffic signs in the car park, particularly the yellow 'Keep
Clear Grid'.
All cars are parked at their owners' risk.
Carers
The practice is interested in the health and well-being of patients who act
as carers. If you act as a carer to an elderly relative, please let the doctor
know so that he or she can provide you with, or refer you to, appropriate support,
care and/or counselling.
Cost Effectiveness
The practice is constantly encouraged by the government
and the local Health Board to prescribe as cost effectively as possible. In order
to do so the practice is increasingly prescribing generic drugs as alternatives
to the more expensive branded drugs. Generic drugs are subject to strict government
quality control standards. The doctors would like to reassure all patients that
the generic substitution has the same biological properties, efficacy, safety
and quality as branded drugs. If there are any difficulties with prescriptions,
patients are encouraged to inform the doctor.
