GP Training Practice

From August 2021 Stubley Medical Centre will be involved in training GP registrars from the Chesterfield training scheme. We have just been joined by Dr Hannah Newton, who will be working at the practice for the next four months until December. Dr Newton is a fully qualified doctor and is able to prescribe. She will be fully supervised by our established GPs. We hope our patients will make her feel welcome!

Computer says ‘No’

Unfortunately, we have no access to the NHS computer system today. This is affecting a number of other practices across North Derbyshire. This compromises our ability to do, well… just about everything!

We can’t access patient records or issue prescriptions; order or review lab tests, check hospital correspondence. We are having to run an emergency only service. If you have a request of us that can wait until after the weekend please don’t call today.

We also have a very busy Covid Vaccine day today. Luckily, the vaccine software isn’t running on the same system and so we have been able to improvise and use work laptops using mobile phone network system data to check that we’re giving the right jab to the right person.. so if you do have an appointment today for this you can come down!
