Dr Wilson and Partners is in Grimsby at:
Birkwood Medical Centre
Westward Ho
Grimsby
North East Lincolnshire
DN34 5DX
The provider is registered with CQC to deliver the Regulated Activities; diagnostic and screening procedures, maternity and midwifery services and treatment of disease, disorder or injury and surgical procedures.
The practice is situated within the North East Lincolnshire Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) and delivers General Medical Services (GMS) to a patient population of about 8,473. This is part of a contract held with NHS England.
The practice is part of a wider network of four GP practices totalling a patient population of about 30,500.
Information published by Public Health England shows that deprivation within the practice population group is in the third lowest decile (three of 10). The lower the decile, the more deprived the practice population is relative to others.
According to the latest available data, the ethnic make-up of the practice area is 97.5% White, 1.3% Asian, 0.3% Black and 0.7% Mixed.
The age distribution of the practice population closely mirrors the local and national averages.
There is a team of four GPs. The practice has a team of two nurses who provide nurse led clinics. The GPs are supported at the practice by a team of reception/administration staff and a practice manager.
Due to the enhanced infection prevention and control measures put in place since the pandemic and in line with the national guidance, most GP appointments were telephone consultations. If the GP needs to see a patient face-to-face this is offered after GP telephone triage.
Extended access was provided locally by the Primary Care Network (PCN), where late evening and weekend appointments are available and booked via the patient’s own GP practice. Out of hours services are provided by the GP Out of Hours Unit accessible by calling 111.
