How Are We Doing?

Over the past 12 months Caritas Group Practice has been making the transition to a new team: two new partners and two very experienced managers have come on-board. We have been busy behind the scenes making some major changes. Progress has been much slower than expected due to the Covid-19 Pandemic, but we are now well on our way to lots of positive changes. There have been significant developments in recent weeks and much more is planned.

We need your help to develop services further. Your feedback is vital in guiding how we manage and
improve services so please share your experiences and suggestions with us.

Welcome to our website!

We have upgraded to a new, more user-friendly and responsive website as part of ongoing developments to the practice. If you would like us to add any content or have any suggestions please go to our feedback section here.
