We are part of Northumbria Primary Care Limited which is a partnership between local GP surgeries and a top-performing NHS trust, Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust.

Disabled access

There is good disabled access in all our consulting rooms

Medical research

We are a research practice and suitable patients may be invited to participate in research on a voluntary basis.

GP earnings

All GP practices are required to declare the mean earnings (e.g. average pay) for GPs working to deliver NHS services to patients at each practice.

The average pay for GPs working at NPC Ponteland in the last financial year was £58,285.58 before tax and national insurance.

This is for 9 part-time GPs.

Veteran Friendly

We are a Veteran Friendly practice. This means that, as part of the health commitments of the Armed Forces Covenant, we have a dedicated Clinician with specialist knowledge of military-related health conditions and veteran-specific health services. This is important in helping ex-forces to get the best care and treatment.

If you are ex-forces, please let your GP know to help ensure you are getting the best possible care.
