How can joint services be offered?
In April 2016, Buttercross Health Centre and Ilchester Surgery were one of the first GP practices to join together into a larger NHS healthcare organisation - Symphony Healthcare Services - which was created to offer support to GP practices to help strengthen primary care services in Somerset.
By joining GP practices together, we aim to help GP practices meet the growing challenges of recruiting and retaining enough doctors and specialist healthcare teams to continue to provide the high quality healthcare services needed by our patients today and in to the future.
By offering joint services across two practices it means we are able to offer a wider, more flexible range of healthcare services. For more information on the joint services now on offer please visit the latest news page.
Symphony Healthcare Services is not privatised healthcare and is a subsidiary of Yeovil Hospital, proving NHS healthcare services. For more information on Symphony Healthcare Services please visit the website
If you require any medical assistance or advice outside opening hours, please call NHS 111. If you have a serious injury, or life threatening medical emergency you should call 999, or visit the hospital's A & E department.
