"Community focused NHS GP practice delivering comprehensive primary care across County Durham"
Blackhall and Peterlee Practice provides NHS primary care services to over 10,000 patients across two sites in County Durham. The practice operates from a modern facility in Blackhall Colliery and a branch surgery within Peterlee Community Hospital, offering general medical services, chronic disease management, minor surgery, and childhood vaccinations. The practice serves communities with higher than average numbers of elderly patients and operates as a training facility for GP registrars. Four partner GPs lead a clinical team that includes salaried doctors, nurse practitioners, practice nurses, healthcare assistants, and pharmacists, supported by administrative staff who manage appointments, prescriptions, and patient records.
