Welcome to Huddersfield Road Surgery

Welcome to the Huddersfield Road Surgery website where you can find out all you need to know about our practice and the services we offer. We hope you enjoy browsing the site and find it useful and informative.

Our vision statement...

"Quality, family doctor's surgery where Doctors, staff and patients work together to produce an efficient and first class service"

Dear Patients,

On Thursday 17th October the surgery will be open, however, it will be functioning with minimal staffing due to staff attending Dr Chilukuri’s funeral.

We will have urgent appointments available for patients who need them, however, our reception team are able to signpost you to other places if they feel that this is more appropriate. This could be pharmacy, optician, First Contact Practitioner etc. 

Our pre-bookable appointments will be available to book as usual from 10am where you can phone surgery, come into surgery or you can book online.

We understand that this may be frustrating, but we do ask that you be kind to our staff as Thursday is going to be an incredibly difficult day

We have a book of condolence in reception, if any patients would like to write in this, please ask one of the reception staff. This will be available until Wednesday 16th October

Many thanks

Huddersfield Road Partnership

 

It is with profound sadness that we announce that our beloved partner, colleague, and friend

Dr Rekha Chilukuri

has sadly passed away on 28th September 2024.

Rekha started with us on 2nd January 2017 as a salaried GP and then went on to become a Partner on 1st August 2020.

Rekha was a great asset to the surgery and will be very sadly missed here by all of her partners, colleagues and by her patients.

Please bear in mind when speaking to our staff that they are grieving and still trying to process this sad news.

If you feel that you need bereavement support, please find services on this website: www.barnsley.gov.uk/services/births-deaths-and-marriages/deaths-and-funerals/bereavement-support-groups/

 

Dear Patients,

As from Monday 5th February 2024 our appointment system will change. Anyone who needs an URGENT on the day appointment will need to phone/come in between 8am and 10am.

Anyone who would like a pre-booked appointment that is non urgent can phone/come in from 10am onwards.

Please be advised that our care co-ordinators will ask for your problem and direct you to the best place for your problem. Due to demand you are not guaranteed an appointment by phoning between these times.

All patients will be asked why they are requesting an appointment, and this is to ensure that we are booking you in or signposting you to the correct person to help with your care.

If you do not feel that you want to discuss your problem at reception, please let the receptionist know and they can take you to a private room to discuss.

Many thanks

Huddersfield Road Partnership
