From 30 April 2022 Hightown Village Surgery will be run by TCG Medical Services on an interim basis, ensuring continuous care for the practice’s small community of just under 2,000 registered patients.

TCG Medical Services is replacing Chapel Lane Surgery for the remainder of the life of the current contract. The practices are working together to ensure a smooth switch to these new temporary management arrangements, put in place whilst a long term provider is found to run Hightown from April 2023.

Merseyside based TCG Medical Services run a number of practices in Sefton and Wirral. In its latest inspection report, the Care Quality Commission noted some areas of outstanding practice and awarded an overall rating of ‘good’ for the quality of TCG’s service in Southport.

There are no changes in access to services at the practice, and patients should continue to make contact in the usual ways by phone, or online using the e-Consult form found on the website www.hightownvillagesurgery.co.uk
