Why some patients are struggling to get a GP appointment

When you are unwell or need support managing a condition, we know that you want an appointment with a GP or member of the practice team as quickly as possible and with a minimum of fuss. But, too often, that is something that practices struggle to provide.

Practice Nurse Kay Stewart retires

To all Staff and Patients,

It is with mixed emotions and a heavy heart that I have decided to move on from Craiglockhart Medical group, retiring from General Practice Nursing.

After 20 years caring for the Craiglockhart and Oxgangs community, I have decided to take up a position working with the vaccine research team at the Western General Hospital. 

I would like to thank you for all your support as I bid you a fond farewell.  I wish all the patients and staff health and happiness for the future.

With many thanks,

Practice Nurse Kay Stewart
