The Practice
The Practice consists of three Principals, plus two GP assistant sessions per week. The Practice population is approximately 4,150, mainly from Aldeburgh but with a fair number from the surrounding villages. There is also a large proportion of elderly patients.

As well as the Practice work, we look after our own patients in the Aldeburgh Hospital and also those under the care of the Geriatric Department. The Aldeburgh Hospital has 16 GP beds, shared with the Leiston Practice, and 29 frail elderly rehabilitation beds.

The Surgery is purpose-built in a converted barn giving a nice atmosphere. We are well equipped and fully computerised, using Isoft Synergy with full internet access and e-mail for all doctors.

The Training
The training post in Aldeburgh is run in conjunction with the Ipswich Scheme, with one day spent on the day-release course. The Registrar in Aldeburgh would have his/her own room and would normally spend three and a half days in the Practice, with Wednesday afternoons off.
