Kirton Medical Centre

Hello and welcome to our new website.  We’ve packed it full of useful information in a very easy to use format with the added benefit of several online functions.

The team are here to provide all patients with a professional and caring healthcare experience in friendly and personal surroundings. With discretion and confidentiality guaranteed your welfare is safe, secure and in good hands.

The surgery car park is for patients attending surgery only. If you have difficulties parking please report to the receptionist.

The surgery is fully DDA Compliant with a lift to the first floor, toilet facilities with wide access to accept a wheelchair and helper and a loop for hearing aids.

The NHS Integrated Care Board (ICB)will be holding an informal and friendly listening Clinic here at Kirton Medical Centre on Monday 4 December – 10am-12noon.

If you are unable to attend but would like to leave feedback, please complete their online survey by midnight on Sunday, 3 December: https://bit.ly/3QYsjQ4

Practice Update:

Booking of appiontments: We now offer the following ways to be able to get an appiontment with a clinician at Kirton Medical Centre:

1. (preferred option) Telephone in the morning at 0830 to get either a Face to Face appiontment or request a telephone call back appiontment.
2. Come to the main door for 0830 and book with recepetion to get either a Face to Face appiontment or request a telephone call back appiontment.
3. You can go online and book an E-Consult - complete the online form and you will get a responce from a Clinician within 48 hrs. These appiontments are limited.
4. You can go online and book an appiontment to get either a face to Face appiontmnet or request a telephone call back appiontment. These appiontments are limited.

As well as on the day appiontments we are now trialling pre bookable Face to face appiontments which at the momment are for 2 weeks time. Unfortunatley this type of booking is the main cause for our "Did Not Attends" (DNA`s). We had 18 DNA`s on Monday the 18th of Dec 2023. This equated to 2 hours worth of our clinicians time being wasted.

CAR PARK: You will be aware that the car park is in desperate need of re-surfaceing. A contracter has now been tasked with the works and this will be getting done over two weekends. 6th and 13th of January 2024.

GP changes

Dr Bunting has now left Kirton Medical Centre and Dr Lowe is now the Senior GP Partner with Dr David Wordsworth and Dr Muhammed Khan joining the partner ship in April 2023. Dr Wordsworth joins us from a practice in Norfolk, but knows Boston and Lincolnshire well having been working training GPs here for the last year. Dr Khan joins us from working in Spalding, having trained as a GP in the local area. Dr Khan and Dr Wordsworth both have good experience in General Practice, and we are sure you will welcome them both.

Both have already done some days working with us, so have begun to meet you. Together with Dr Lowe, they are excited to be leading Kirton Medical Centre into the future.

Staff Changes

Unfortunatley we are going to be loosing Kay Jones our Advanced Nurse Practitioner (ANP). Kay has decided to move back to Somerset to be close to family and will be doing so mid Jan 2024. She will be missed but we wish her all the very best.

Some of you will already be aware that James Glenn is now acting as our newly qualified ANP and will be taking over the duties from Kay in the New Year. However he will be supervised by Dr Wordsworth untill his training has been completed.
