Patient Involvement

 

The Hadleigh Practice Patient Participation Group (PPG) 

Would you like to have more of a voice at your GP Practice?

Would you like to have a better understanding of how the practice is run?

We act as the patients 'Voice' in seeking to influence the service which the GP Practice gives to its community. We consult with the GP Practice on the development and provision of the community needs. We contribute to and are kept informed of GP Practice decisions.

To find out more about the PPG please visit the Hadleigh Practice Patient Participation Group page

This Surgery is supporting the Athena shingles study.
