Welcome to Dunelm Medical Practice

Dunelm Medical Practice serves patients across the Durham area including many of the surrounding villages.

Our regular team includes nine GP partners, one Nurse Practitioner, two Senior Practice Nurses, three Health Care Assistants, as well as our Business Manager, Development Manager, Nurse manager, secretaries, administration staff and reception staff.

Locum GPs provide cover if our doctors are out of the practice for periods, e.g. training.

We offer a full general practice service and organise specialist appointments for the monitoring of chronic disease such as diabetes, asthma, heart disease and long term lung problems. We offer childhood immunisations, travel advice/vaccinations and minor surgery. We also have specialist clinics for counselling, foot care, dietary advice, Health and Well Being, and Pathways to Work.

The midwife runs clinics for the care of pregnant women and there is access to a Health Visitor.

GPs in central Durham, Chester-Le-Street and Derwentside are working together to offer extra GP appointments from 6.30pm on weekday evenings as well as Saturday and Sunday mornings.  Just call your surgery to book any available evening and weekend GP appointments.
