General and Family Medicine

We believe in managing medical problems in the context of a whole patient approach, while further recognising that the environment that the patient lives in at work and home has a significant impact on their condition and how it is managed. We use a patient centred rather than an illness based approach.

Our medical centre is built around the core principles encapsulated in UK family medicine and general practice. The team has three UK educated and trained GPs, all members of the Royal College of General Practitioners which sets the international standard for this specialist type of medical care.
