Norton Brook Medical Centre covers a large rural area in the South Hams; the practice boundary is a five mile radius around Kingsbridge. Our friendly team includes 9 GPs, 3 practice nurses, 2 HCAs and a phlebotomy team. Our non-clinical team consists of our practice manager and large helpful team of reception, administration and secretarial staff. 

Become a Committee Member

Could you spare a small amount of time each year by becoming a member of the Committee which oversees the running of the Transport Service? This really isn't an onerous commitment and would help enormously to the functioning of the NBMC Transport service which is vital to so many of our vulnerable patients.
