Blackhall and Peterlee Practice

Blackhall and Peterlee Practice provides NHS primary care from Blackhall Community Health Centre and a branch at Peterlee Community Hospital in County Durham. Its services include general medical consultations, long-term condition management, immunisations, health promotion and minor surgery. GP partners and salaried doctors work with nurse practitioners, practice nurses, a nursing associate and healthcare assistants.

The practice trains GP registrars and supports medical students, with several doctors acting as trainers or supervisors. Its wider team includes pharmacists and pharmacy technicians, alongside social prescribing, care coordination and mental health support. Administrative and reception colleagues manage patient information and appointments, helping patients reach the appropriate clinician across the two locations.
