Kelsall Medical Centre is a small rural practice, that has 5 doctors, 2 nurses, and several other health care professionals attached to our surgery.

We are a dispensing practice, which means that if you live more than 1 mile from a chemist, then you can collect your medications directly from the dispensary in our surgery 4 working days after request.
