Welcome to Faversham Medical Practice

Our mission statement:

"At Faversham Medical Practice we aim to provide health care in a professional and compassionate manner and we are committed to delivering a high quality service to our patients."

New Telephone Number

From 10am on Monday the 14th November 2022, we will be using a new telephone system which will have more functionality and capacity for patients. Unfortunantly we are not able to port our existing number to this new system, so we will changing our main contact number to 01795 905577. Please use this number from 10am on the 14th November 2022.

Where to get help

There are extensive resources available in the community which patients can access without ever needed to attend their GP practice.

These include services such as Talking Therapies (counselling), Sexual health clinics, midwifery and stop smoking services.

Please see our "Where to get help" page for information about local services which you can access directly. There are also lots of helpful resources and self help guides.

Long Term Conditions

We are changing the way we invite patients for their annual review of their Long Term Conditions (such as diabetes, asthma, COPD, hypertension, etc). We are now trying to line up the annual review with their birth month. This might mean that you are called for annual review earlier/later then before. Please bear with us as we work through the new system as it will take a while to get everyone to get their annual reviews lined up with their birth month.

Job Vacancies

We are currently advertising for an Administrative Assistant to the Business Manager, iWorkflow Administrator, and a Finance Manager. Please see our Job Vacancies page.

THEATRE NURSES (OPHTHALMIC NURSES) AND OPHTHALMOLOGY TECHNICIANS REQUIRED
