Welcome to the York Medical Group website
This website is for both existing patients and those considering registering with us. It tells you about our services, how to access them and some general information about how our practice operates.
At York Medical Group, we aim to treat all our patients promptly, courteously and in complete confidence.
Practice area
We have four sites in the city; please see the maps to find our locations. With the exception of patients registered at York St John University, patients are welcome to make appointments at any of our three main surgeries – Acomb, Monkgate and Woodthorpe – even if this is not your usual surgery. All our patients' medical records are computerised, so – for example – if you work in town and it is more convenient for you to be seen at our Monkgate surgery, please do not hesitate to make an appointment there.
Access to Practice premises for the disabled
All our surgeries have disabled access; access at Woodthorpe is limited. Should you require further information, please telephone the relevant surgery.
Training
We are a training practice. This means hospital doctors wanting to enter general practice spend, typically, six months with us in order to gain the necessary experience they need to become family doctors. In addition, we teach student doctors based at Hull York Medical School.
As a training practice, your medical records may be used for educational purposes. Because of this, we ask patients registering with us to sign a consent form giving permission for their records to be used in this way. On occasions, your permission may be requested to video record a consultation. You are entirely free to withhold this permission, and this will make no difference whatsoever to your care.
