GLEBE PARK RELOCATION – PATIENT ENGAGEMENT RESULTS

The Partners are very pleased to announce that the move of Glebe Park Surgery has been formally approved, by Lincolnshire Integrated Care Board.  Building work is due to commence on the new premises at the Carlton Centre Shopping Centre, and patients will be kept informed of updates.  Once we have a moving date set we will communicate this to patients via text messages and letters to households. At the moment the move is anticipated to take place in the summer of 2024.

We would like to thank all of our patients, families and their carers, who took the time to respond to our request for feedback, and to those who took the time to attend our patient engagement events. Your input into the process has been invaluable to us.

Below is a summary of the feedback we received during our 12 week engagement exercise
