Welcome to our website.
We are a small practice of family doctors working within the brand new Canalside Healthcare Centre in Bingley. We provide a full range of Primary Care Medical Services. Despite our small friendly atmosphere, we manage to offer a range of extended services which are often available only at larger practices. We teach Medical Students, and doctors on the GP Training Programme. We try to provide a personal service, whilst maintaining high standards of care.
Springfield Surgery's list is OPEN to new patients in the Bingley area - see new patients page.
We have moved!
After months of planning and hard work, we have now moved into the new Canalside Healthcare Centre. This will be a huge change for us, moving out of a more traditional GP surgery. We really hope we will be able to maintain the personal small-practice feel of the past. Yet the new building provides so much more space to provide extended services to patients, as well as developing a more co-ordinated approach to healthcare by integrating with the wider team of health workers. Obviously there will be a few teething problems, so please bear with us. And of course, we're as keen as ever to receive feedback with comments or suggestions.
We will be remaining as an independant practice in the new centre, and will operate in much the same way as we do now. There is no need for you to re-register, your registration with us will continue automatically. Our telephone numbers will remain unchanged. If you have any questions or concerns, email the practice (see contact us page), or drop into the surgery and ask a member of staff.
We are holding an OPEN DAY on Saturday 6th February from 10am to 12pm. The open day is open to all to come and have a look around.
Other news.....
-
New opening hours. We are always striving to improve the service we offer, and patients who work often tell us it is hard to get to see us at times to fit in with their jobs. So in addition to our Monday evening surgeries and our monthly Saturday morning surgery, we will shortly be opening 8am every weekeday morning, and closing at 6.30pm. These new times will come into effect from the beginning of April 2010.
-
You can pre-book appointments with a GP in advance and also book appointments on-line. You can even book appointments through Sky/Virgin television and some mobile phones (see appointments page).
-
New blood clinic. One of the benefits of moving into the new Canalside Centre is the extra space we will gain, which should improve the range of services we can offer. The first of these is the re-introduction of a blood-taking clinic in-house, which will be up and running by February. Appointments can be booked through reception in the usual way.
We are always trying to improve the services we offer. We are currently
-
looking to provide physiotherapy appointments at the Yorkshire Clinic on the NHS.
-
working with other practices in Bingley to widen the services we can offer, including blood testing, warfarin.
-
developing a new service, working in conjunction with a local pharmacy team, to review patients on multiple medications.
-
looking to expand our minor surgery service, and link it in to the Bingley Dermatology Clinic.
How to contact us
All contact details are listed on the contact us page.
We regret that, for the time being, it is not possible to contact individual doctors by email for queries or medical advice. However, if you have any general comments or suggestions about this site or our services, please feel free to email us and let us know. PLEASE NOTE emails are only checked once a day.
We try very hard to answer telephone calls quickly. Phone line are particularly busy first thing in the morning, as this is when many of our patients ring us to get a "book on the day" appointment. We have increased our staffing and incoming lines to try and ease phone congestion. If your call is for something other than to book an appointment eg. for test results, it may be best to try later in the day (after 10am).
