Named accountable GPs

Every patient at Whitby Group Practice is allocated to a named accountable GP who has overall responsibility for the care and support they are provided with.

Our GPs work part time in the practice and work in teams; working closely within a team to provide full appointment availability to their patients. It means that most patients will have more than one GP looking after them even though our medical records allocate you as being registered with only one – we would ask that you consider all doctors within the team when booking appointments.

If you are unsure who your named accountable GP or their paired GP is, please ask at reception.

You do not have to see your named accountable GP, and if you particularly wish, you can change to another GP’s list.
