The Abbey Medical Centre aims to provide the best possible medical and psychological care to our patients. We think that providing a personal service is the best way to achieve this and we encourage continuity of care in the doctor-patient relationship.
We take pride in serving the diverse needs of our community and we believe that we have an important part to play in promoting health as well as in treating illness. We recognize that social inequality plays a role in poor health and we aim to address the additional needs of the socially and medically vulnerable, including infants and children, the elderly, the isolated, the disabled and mentally ill and the victims of political, racial, religious and sexual discrimination.
