We aim to provide a high quality health-care service to all our patients in a friendly, informal and efficient environment. We have a highly skilled and experienced team who work together to provide the best care possible.
Our Practice Area
Our Practice area covers Cross Hills, Sutton, Cowling, Glusburn, Eastburn, Steeton & Silsden and reaches as far as Utley and Laycock towards Keighley. On the Skipton side we cover Lothersdale, Farnhill, Kildwick, Cononley and Bradley. This area is approximately 30 square miles and we are fortunate to have some fantastic countryside around us. We will only take new patients from within this catchment area so if you are unsure as to whether you do fall within our Practice Area please give us a call.
Training Practice
Cross Hills Group Practice has been an approved Training Practice for many years. This means that we train qualified doctors to become General Practitioners. We usually have one or two GP Registrars from the Airedale Vocational Training Scheme on placement with us at one time.Being a Training Practice means that we have to adhere to strict standards on data quality and service provision. Many of our previous registrars often come back to work at the Practice, either as partners or locum GPs.
Patient Population
We currently have an increasing list of 12,200 patients (as at March 2007). Recent housing developments have increased the local population and our list size. There is a wide patient demographic mix (from young families to elderly nursing home patients) but the Practice is generally similar to national averages regarding prevalence of disease.
