PLANS for a new GP super surgery in Hereford will go on display to the public next week.
Work has been ongoing to look at the possibility of merging a number of doctors' practices in the city at a site close to the railway station.
And the new primary care hub would be the main surgery for patients who currently access GP services at Greyfriars Surgery, Moorfield House Surgery, Aylestone Hill Surgery and Sarum House.
The engagement event to display plans for the hub takes place next Thursday at Hereford Town Hall from 2.30pm to 7.30pm.
The Hereford Medical Group has been working in partnership with local healthcare property company, Prime and design team One Creative Environments Ltd (One) to develop the proposals for a modern, high quality building to provide patients with the best possible experience when accessing primary care services.
Representatives from the Hereford Medical Group, Prime and One will be on hand throughout to answer questions.
No booking is necessary and members of the public are welcome to pop in at any time.
Dr Andrew Watts said: “Our key priority is providing good quality medical care for our patients.
"Unfortunately our current premises are outdated and at full capacity and so are no longer suitable, which is why we need new purpose built accommodation.
"We are keen to share our plans with patients.”
Bob Smaylen, Development Director for Prime plc, added: “Using our expertise in delivering primary care facilities we are developing proposals which will provide high quality facilities that improve patient experience. We are looking forward to sharing these plans with local residents and hearing their feedback.”
