IMPORTANT PATIENT INFORMATION

Claremont Surgery recently experienced computer downtime to perform essential changes to the surgery IT system.  Currently the surgery IT system is still experiencing some difficulties with external IT systems and this will lead to a delay in

• processing letters from hospital out patient departments
•  dealing with private reports

It will take time for the surgery to process these items after the computer system becomes fully functional.  We would appreciate your understanding during this time.

Welcome to Claremont Surgery

Situated in the town centre since 1895, Claremont is now a eight partner practice within the Wilderness Medical Centre adjoining the Cookham Road. The practice moved into its Grade II listed Georgian building in 1991.

We aim to offer our 12,500 patients a caring, efficient and up to date service, supported by the appropriate use of technology. This guide outlines how you can make the best use of your surgery as we strive to maintain and improve the health of our patients. We work in co-operation with patients within the guidelines of the Claremont Charter, and welcome your suggestions at all times. If you experience any problems, our practice team will be happy to assist you.

Claremont is an approved Training Practice, and participates in the advanced training of fully qualified doctors in their chosen speciality of General Practice. They work with us for a final year as Registrars before seeking their own partnerships. Patient consultations are sometimes videoed for use in teaching, but patients have the option to decline to participate if they wish. Our Practice also supports other Doctors who are attached for varying amounts of time for training and retraining positions. There is a long tradition of continuing education for all Claremont personnel and we hold regular staff training sessions, when the surgery is closed. The Doctors at Claremont Surgery work in a Partnership.

We hope to use our surgery website as a way of presenting all our patients with an up to date resource for all information relating to our practice. We will keep it current with any news, developments & details that are relevant to the practice & our patients.
