Bankhouse Surgery

The doctors and staff at Bankhouse Surgery in Hartlepool are proud to offer the highest standard of healthcare. We offer specialist clinics for the management of chronic diseases such as asthma and diabetes and a wide variety of other medical services including minor surgery, childhood and travel vaccinations, baby clinics and contraception and sexual health services.

This practice is very highly regarded regionally and is one of the leading training practices in the North East, working closely with Newcastle University and the Northern Deanery in the training of young doctors.

In addition to lots of information about the practice, the menu on the right hand side of this page allows you access to a wealth of NHS health-related information.

IMPORTANT

The NHS in Hartlepool & Stockton and Public Health England (PHE) are extremely well prepared for outbreaks of new infectious diseases. The NHS has put in place measures to ensure the safety of all patients and NHS staff while also ensuring services are available to the public as normal.

In the interest of infection control due to coronavirus outbreak we have temporarily suspended the use of our auto check in service. Please give yourself enough time before your appointment to ensure that you are checked in for your appointment time.

Please be aware that we remain open for business as usual - although this might look a bit different

Whilst there will be fewer face to face

Telephone consultations - available to book via telephone

Video consultations - during telephone consultations if GP feels appropriate

e-Consultations - available via our website

Unfortunately online appointment booking remains unavailable for now.

Please note the GP surgery does not supply letters of exemption for wearing face masks. The government guidance on exemption suggests there is no requirement for evidence for exemption therefore it is sufficient for an individual to self-declare this. Government advice on use of face coverings can be found on the www.gov.uk website.

To improve patient care we are changing our computer system. There may be some minor disruption to our services during October. Apologies for any inconvenience. Please be patient
