Patients will be able to access medical care in Feltham more easily after a new doctors surgery opened this week.
The Practice Feltham Centre opened its doors for the first time on Tuesday, joining four other GP practices at the Feltham Centre for Health in the High Street.
NHS Hounslow, which is responsible for the health of more than 250,000 people living in the borough, has tried to improve access to primary care services by increasing the number of surgeries, working with GPs to extend opening hours and opening a new walk-in service at the Heart of Hounslow, Bath Road, Hounslow.
Dr Rahat Ghazanfar, a GP at the new Feltham practice, said: “This is a great facility and I’m happy to be part of delivering better services for patients in the area.
“I’m a GP here and also at Heart of Hounslow where we provide a walk-in service.
“The feedback from patients is already very positive – they very much like the choice now available and added ease in seeing a GP.”
