"Community general practice across Buckden and Little Paxton"
About Buckden and Little Paxton Surgeries
Buckden and Little Paxton Surgeries provides NHS general practice across two Cambridgeshire villages. Services include GP and nursing appointments, blood tests, prevention and prescriptions. The practice also hosts community dermatology clinics. Its smaller Little Paxton surgery joined the practice in January 2006.
Patients can use online triage and the NHS App alongside local appointments. A shared patients association organises health education and helps fund equipment, while Buckden offers eligible patients a round-the-clock prescription collection service. The practice is an approved GP training centre and participates in primary care research, combining everyday care with medical education.
Teaching within general practice
Qualified doctors undertake placements at different stages of GP training. The practice’s published training arrangements involve all its GPs in supporting these doctors, with a designated training lead. Training therefore sits within the wider clinical team rather than being confined to a separate teaching service.
Research alongside patient care
The practice holds RCGP Research Ready accreditation and contributes pseudonymised data to national research and disease surveillance. Patients may also be invited to participate in studies through the practice.
