Ilkley Moor and Grassington
primary care services
We are a caring and committed team whose aim is to improve the health of our community by delivering high quality patient care, whilst maintaining a fulfilling working environment for all.
We take pride in offering the highest standard of patient-centred healthcare. We offer many services including clinics for long term conditions, minor surgery, postnatal care, minor surgery, childhood vaccinations and well-person check-ups.
We would like to say a huge THANK YOU to all our patients during the COVID-19 period. We are very grateful for your continued support and understanding.
Please continue to call the surgery if you need a doctor or nurse appointment and if you are invited to attend the surgery for a pre booked appointment you will no longer be asked to wait outside.
We will only be open for pre booked appointments, not drop in at this point, so if you have any queries please continue to call us or use our online eConsult.
If you have a prescription request please continue to drop in the letter box or use the online facility as we won’t be able to take this over the desk.
We need your help to keep our staff safe and to protect our vulnerable patients who are invited into the building for appointments. We hope you can support the teams at both practices to look after you and your family.
Patient Notice
You may notice that the practice has a new process for looking after patients with long-term conditions. Most patients will now be called for their appointments during their birthday month, so you may receive an invitation earlier than expected.
If we ask you to come in for a ‘blood test or other monitoring’ this may not always include a blood test and may be for other routine checks e.g. blood pressure, weight etc.
