What our patients say about us
The service I've received from my surgery, for many years, has been amazing! For myself and my daughter. The process to get an appointment works VERY well. Using AskmyGP and awaiting a call back, later that day, to discuss what is needed next. I've never had a problem getting an appointment, I feel for people who have this issue, but I've never experienced this at Brooke surgery.
Well done guys. Many thanks.

Have only been at The Brooke Surgery for a few weeks but the service is excellent. I was able to get an appointment very quickly and the Doctor spent plenty of time with me. You are not rushed at all.
The online website is so easy to use and full of useful information.
I cannot recommend enough.
