Birchgrove Surgery

Birchgrove Surgery was first established in the 1920's. 

The Practice is a Partnership of 5 GP's -  Dr Jeremy Davies, Dr Stephanie Richards, Dr Meleri Wyn, Dr Sion Dafydd and Dr Spurthi Vemulapalli. They are aided by Dr Jane Patel, and Dr Toby Musson.

As a training practice, we also have GP registrars who support our team during their training.

The main surgery moved to its present location in August 2005; we also run a branch surgery in Rhiwbina Clinic.

The surgery and the services we provide are designed to be fully accessible to disabled users. Please make a member of the practice team aware if you have any special needs - we will be happy to help.

Prior to taking your photographs and sending them to the Practice Manager email address, please click the link below and read our handy guide to getting the best quality photographs out of your smartphone...

Please note that you should not be sending in photographs unless you have been asked to - you will need to arrange an appointment first with reception before we can process any pictures. Please do not photograph intimate body parts. If you have any questions, just let us know.

We want to communicate with our patients in the most effective way possible, whether in person or by other means. 

We already utilise SMS text messaging to communicate with our patients for the following reasons:

• to confirm an appointment
• Appointment reminders
• Invitations for long term condition reviews
• Invitations for eligible clinics e.g. Flu

We will shortly be looking at utilising the text messaging service for a broader range of services, where applicable.

Please update your consent for SMS text messaging HERE
