The Practice
Philosophy
'We aim to work in
partnership with you to provide excellent holistic care that is
responsive to your needs. Together we can work towards promoting
optimal health by making best use of the resources available. The mission of the surgery is to promote health, prevent disease where
possible, give best treatment to illness as they present and treat
patients confidentially and with courtesy.
About Us
Westcroft Health Centre
was established in 1999 by Dr. Rowena Liesching
to
meet the health needs of a rapidly expanding population in the western
area of Milton Keynes.
Dr.
Ahmad joined the practice in January 2001, Dr.
Malik in 2004, Dr. Alifoe in 2006, Dr. Patel in
2007,
Dr Godagama in 2008 and Dr Ali in 2009.
The
practice population is growing at the rate of about 1200 patients per
year and it is projected that there will eventually be seven GPs
providing medical services for 14,000 patients. The Doctors, Practice
Team and Community Team work closely together to provide a high
quality service that is sensitive to patient needs.
The
practice moved in March 2002
from
its original porta-cabins to new purpose built premises in Savill
Lane. The practice consulting rooms are
situated on the ground floor with
excellent
waiting room facilities
which include a play and pram park
area. We are
fully equipped with
facilities for the disabled. Community Nursing Staff and the Community
Mental Health Teams are located on the first floor which has lift
and stair access.
We
practice a high standard of clinical care and offer chronic disease
management programmes. We maintain a high percentage of fully
summarised notes, and 'paper light' practice using EMIS PCS.
Practice Area
The
practice accepts registrations from patients living in
Westcroft,
Tattenhoe, Tattenhoe Park, Shenley Brook End,
