Is your practice website secure? Mobile friendly? Accessible? GDPR compliant?

Do you get all the help and support you need?

All our GP surgery websites are designed with two clear principles in mind:

  1. Providing the best possible experience for patients/users – ultimately assisting better patient outcomes – easy and quick to navigate, to immediately helpful and reliable information, providing critical contact points, calls to action, and signposting.
  2. To help your surgery run even more efficiently – by: helping to reduce waiting times and telephone queues, reducing hard-copy paperwork and re-keying & retelling of information, improving the breadth and quality of information – accurate and timely information to patients, and information about patients securely back to practice staff.
