Our Commitment
The Dr Alistair Partnership is committed to
providing an excellent standard of service
and healthcare. We also undertake, as a
teaching practice, to pass on our expertise by
the training and development of fellow health
care professionals.
We accept patients from Bryn, Ashton,
Golborne, Lowton East and Lowton West.
Please be aware that we are a teaching
Practice and at times have medical students,
trainee GPs and student nurses. You will be
advised prior to consultation if they will be
present. If you do not wish them to be present
during your consultation please inform
reception.
As a patient, you have a right to express your
preference of practitioner when booking an
appointment. The Administration and
Reception Team will offer every assistance to
identify your best source of help
and course of action.
