Who we are
Welcome to Burn Brae Medical Group, one of the longest established Medical Practices in the UK, much older than the NHS itself. We are based in Hexham, Northumberland and our catchment area covers approximately 200 square miles.
Why register with us
We are a recipient of the highest quality award in UK General Practice, namely the Quality Practice Award, which we have held since 2007. We remain one of the few Practices to make it through the five-yearly accreditation process twice.
What we do
We offer a GP led service backed up by a full complement of nursing and administrative staff and the surgery is based in modern purpose-built premises on the Hexham General Hospital site.
How to register
Registering with the practice is straightforward. You can register online or visit the Practice and ask to register. We accept patients onto our list from Hexham and the surrounding areas. You can enter your postcode to check if you live in our catchment area.
Out of Area Patients
We are able to accept Out of Area patients. These are patients who live outside of our catchment area and could receive most of our services except notably home visits. However, we have a Practice Policy that defines who we are able to accept and who we may decide at any time should no longer be registered as an out of Area patient. It it important that current or prospective Out of Area patients understand and accept this policy. If you would like to register with us as an Out of Area patient you will need to complete and return the signed Out of Area application (see below). This is in addition to the registration process.
