Fisher Medical Centre
Craven
The Fisher Medical Centre established in 1885 provides medical services to over 14,000 patients over almost 140 square miles of the Craven area. We work from our main premises in Skipton, and our branch surgery in Gargrave.
In October 2017 Fisher Medical Centre became part of the Airedale, Wharfedale & Craven District Modality Partnership, combining seven GP Pracitces into one Super GP Partnership. The AWC Modality District comprises of Fisher Medical Centre, Holycroft Medical Practice, Cross Hills Group Practice, Farfield Medical Practice, Oakworth Medical Practice, Kilmeny Group Medical Practice and Haworth Medical Practice. To learn more about the Modality Partnership, please visit www.modalitypartnership.nhs.uk
We provide a wide range of medical services. Our experienced team of GPs, Nurses and Healthcare Assistants help us to offer many other services to treat illness and maintain good health.
We also have a very active group of Practice Health Champions who organise many events and regular groups, who are always looking for new volunteers and ideas. So, if you are interested in getting involved please get in touch!
We have long been at the forefront of developments in general practice: We have been involved in training future GPs for many years; over the last few years we have started to help in the training of new doctors by having medical students from Manchester University attached to us and we are also involved in research projects. We hope to combine the best of family doctoring with a commitment to providing the best of modern medical care.
