Assura Group has completed work on the extension and reconfiguration of the Castle Mead Medical Centre in Hinckley, Leicestershire.
The extension has created a pharmacy and three new consulting rooms, which will add to and complement the services currently provided by Castle Mead Medical Centre. The pharmacy is to be managed by Cohens Chemist.
Alison Ellis, practice manager at Castle Mead Medical Centre, said: “The extension is really important to us. With its upgraded facilities patients will benefit from three modern GP consultation rooms and access to a pharmacy 100 hours a week, right on their doorstep.”
Amanda Roddy, development manager at Assura Group, added: “The Castle Mead Medical Centre is a great example of how medical practices can boost and revitalize their premises without the heavy costs of a complete rebuild. With both a GP surgery and a pharmacy in the same building, the extension has created a more pleasant and efficient patient experience.”
