Practice information
Last Updated: Tuesday, 03 September 2024Penny Lane Surgery is located in a very pleasant residential area of Liverpool, made famous by The Beatles in their song "Penny Lane".
The practice was originally set up in a house in Penny Lane. In 1992, having outgrown these premises, we moved across the road to our current surgery, a converted bank set on three floors. In 2024, the current premises was refurbished to create additional consulting rooms and to modernise the building.
Clinicians
We are a small and friendly surgery with two GP Partners, as well as regular sessional GPs, a Physicians Associate, GP Registrars and Foundation Doctors working at the practice. In addition to the doctors, we have an Advanced Nurse Practitioner, who can help with minor ailments and prescribe and refer as appropriate.
Nursing team
We also have a nursing team which is made up of 3 practice nurses. They are here to deal with a whole range of appointments including annual reviews of long-term health conditions, diagnostic procedures, and contraceptive care.
General Medical Services (GMS) contract
The practice team deliver a full range of clinical services under our General Medical Services (GMS) contract with NHS England.
Training practice status
We are proud to be a GP Training practice. You may be offered an appointment with a GP trainee who is a fully qualified doctor who has chosen a career in general practice, a junior Doctor who is also a fully qualified Doctor or a 5th year medical trainee (who isn't a fully qualified Doctor yet. If you see a 5th year trainee, as GP from Penny Lane Surgery will be present during the consultation to supervise).
We appreciate our trainees for their energy, enthusiasm and for keeping us on our toes with up to date medical practice!
