Noticeboard


You’ll hear a lot in the coming days about GPs being on strike and various twists on this. We are not on strike but we are taking a stance about inadequate practice funding and unfunded work. We want to keep our surgery as your local surgery and family GPs. Practices are closing and jobs are being lost nationally. The short video below explains what is actually happening. We get £107 per patient per year. 30 pence a day, to provide your healthcare, whether you see us once in 10 years or see our healthcare team several times a week. You will notice some changes in the coming months, but as the GP partners, we are doing this to protect our staff, but ultimately we are doing this to provide continued and SAFE patient care.

Please see link below to video. 



Springfield Medical Practice offer a Holter monitor service for registered patients and patients from other practices. The service is for 24 hour and 48-hour monitors and must be requested by a GP.

The appointments are on a Tuesday afternoon and a Friday afternoon. We have 4 machines providing 8 appointments per week.

If you have made an appointment for a Holter monitor to be fitted, please read the information leaflet below prior to your appointment. this will show you where the electrodes will be place when the machine is fitted. Please  ensure you have shaved these areas if necessary prior to attending the appointment.
