West Common Lane Teaching Practice is an Armed Forces Veteran Friendly Accredited GP Practice

We are proud to be an Armed Forces veteran friendly accredited GP practice. This accreditation means that, as part of the health commitments of the Armed Forces Covenant, we have a dedicated clinician (Dr Thomas) with specialist knowledge of:

  • Military-related health conditions
  • Veteran-specific health services

This helps ensure that individuals who have served in the UK Armed Forces receive the care and treatment that is right for them.


If you have served in the UK Armed Forces, please let us know. This will help us ensure you receive the best possible care.
