About Bridge End Surgery
Bridge End Surgery provides NHS primary care in Chester le Street, County Durham, from Picktree Lane. Its services include clinical consultations, minor surgery, family planning with coils and implants, child health surveillance, immunisations and maternity care. Doctors, nurse practitioners, practice nurses, a GP assistant and a healthcare assistant work alongside receptionists trained as care navigators.
The surgery is a training practice that supervises GP registrars and teaches medical students from the University of Sunderland. Patients can request non-urgent medical and administrative help through Accurx and use the NHS App for selected appointments and repeat prescriptions. The team also provides home visits for housebound patients.
Coordinating local care
Practice management supports clinical services alongside colleagues handling finance, patient data and referral letters. Receptionists help direct patients to the appropriate clinician. Through Chester le Street Primary Care Network, patients can also access evening and weekend consultations, which may take place at another local practice.
