Elgar House Surgery is an accredited Veteran Friendly GP Practice. We are proud to support our Armed Forces community.
As a Veteran Friendly GP Practice we:
• Have a clinical lead for veteran health- Jessica Bethel (Deputy Practice Manager).
• Ask patients ‘Have you served?’ to identify veteran patients
• Support veteran patients to access dedicated health services
• Undertake specialist training to meet the health commitments of the Armed Forces Covenant.
If you are a veteran patient, please let us know that you have served so that we can make sure that we understand your health needs.
Nearly 1,100 practices are now Veteran Friendly accredited.
