WINDSOR MEDICAL PRACTICE
We are a small practice that aims to provide a personalised General Practitioner service addressing your health needs. We were established in the late 1940s at Windsor Crescent, and are now located at the Lido Medical Centre.
This provides us with excellent parking and a range of additional related services including a pharmacy, chiropractor and physiotherapist on our doorstep. We have a good working knowledge of local services and what our secondary care colleagues can provide.
Our strength of being small is that you, our patient, avoid the pitfall of seeing a different GP on every visit, and having to repeat your medical history during every consultation. This means that, over time, we get to know you and your family, which we believe is the foundation of good general practice.
WINDSOR MEDICAL CBPM
Windsor Medical CBPM is the only local GP surgery where patients can be assessed to receive treatment directly with their doctor. We are an independent GP practice and our doctors are experts in the field of medicinal cannabis and can provide an assessment to see if you may be eligible for a medicinal cannabis treatment.
