The Deerbrook Vision

 

About Us

We started as a GP surgery in an end of terrace house at the corner of Deerbrook Road and Norwood Road. In recent years, the practice outgrew the small site and now occupies a purpose built modern clinical facility at 216 Norwood Road. The practice now consists of a varied team of doctors, nurses, pharmacists, physios and allied healthcare professionals.
The leadership team consists of experts in musculoskeletal and sports medicine and respiratory/allergy and asthma. We have doctors that have been involved in commissioning and design of local care pathways and in healthcare innovation. The practice is now a teaching practice for medical students and juniors doctors.
