INDEPENDENT Scottish medical practice YourGP is marking its 20th anniversary by opening a second practice in the heart of Scotland’s capital.
Situated on Dundas Street, the new practice features four treatment rooms and will offer services including GP appointments, health screening, cosmetic treatments and sexual health services.
Established in 2003 in Edinburgh’s Dean Village, YourGP promises “affordable, friendly & local GP services.”
Locals are being given the opportunity to join the launch day celebrations and be amongst the first to see the new practice and meet some of the team at the new practice open day.
Taking place on Friday 1 September, 12pm – 4pm, entry is free and there is no obligation to register at the practice or to book an appointment.
Visitors can pick up an exclusive goodie bag while stocks last, enjoy 20% off GP and cosmetic services, and enter a prize draw to win a Health MOT worth £495.
Ahead of the open day, YourGP Clinical Lead, Dr Cathrow, said: “During my time in healthcare over the past 20 years I have seen a hugely positive shift in patients’ attitudes.
“Especially since the pandemic, people are more attuned to general wellbeing and are looking for a more holistic approach to their healthcare.
“Focus has moved more to prevention as opposed to simply looking for cures,” she added.
Dr Cathrow continued: “We are seeing a much more engaged population who are taking control of their health and wellbeing in a more proactive manner.
“In response to this and to mark our 20th anniversary, we are delighted to expand our
offering and launch YourGP at Dundas Street which will give Edinburgh residents better
access to friendly, affordable local GP services.
“In so doing, YourGP can continue to support people to take charge of their wellbeing and
enjoy life-long good health.”
