We are very pleased to announce that Dr Patrick Hart, will be taking up a position of Salaried GP at the surgery as of 1st April 2019. Many of you may have already seen Dr Hart as he has been a registrar at the practice for a while.
Patrick originally hails from North Devon, and graduated from Cardiff University in 2010. After working in both New Zealand and South Africa he made the decision to settle in the West country. He loves Somerset for its countryside and excellent cycling; he still manages to get back to Devon once in a while to head to the beach and to check in with the family.
We would all like to welcome Patrick to the Glastonbury Health Centre Team, and we look forward to many more year's working together.
