About Us

The St John’s Wood Medical Practice started over 40 years ago and we have been in new purpose-built premises with easy access for our disabled patients since January 2008.  

We are an NHS Westminster GP. We aim to provide the best comprehensive medical care to all our registered patients regardless of race, gender, age, religion, sexuality, disability or medical condition.

Who else you might see at our practice?

Alongside GPs and nurses, there are a number of other healthcare professionals that support our patients at the practice. They help us proactively address your health needs and increase your access to Primary Care. These roles form what is known as the Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme (ARRS) which was introduced into the NHS in 2019. You can read more about AARS here.
