About Alwoodley Medical Centre
Alwoodley Medical Centre is an NHS GP practice in North Leeds, formed in March 2016 through the merger of Nursery Lane and Moorcroft surgeries. It treats minor ailments, manages long-term conditions and provides clinics covering a range of health needs. The practice reported almost 20,000 patients in its September 2023 patient participation meeting.
Based at Saxon Mount, the centre is part of Central North Leeds Primary Care Network. Patients can use face-to-face and telephone appointments alongside Patient Access, the NHS App and PATCHS. Its clinical team includes GP partners, salaried doctors, nurses, healthcare assistants and a pharmacist, with supervised training for medical students, nurses and GP trainees.
Training across the practice
The practice sets aside an afternoon each month for staff training. It also supervises learners from several professions, including medical students, nurses and GP trainees, bringing education into the everyday work of the surgery.
