About the Practice

Eaglescliffe Medical Practice was started in 1971 by Dr T. O' Callaghan and has grown to look after over 10,000 patients from Eaglescliffe, Yarm and surrounding areas. We try to combine efficiency with friendliness in looking after our patients. We aim to provide a high standard of preventative care and advice whilst encouraging healthy lifestyle without undue medical interference.

The Health Centre

This is a purpose built, fully accessible building, opened in 2009, with car parking on site. We share the centre with other health personnel employed by Hartlepool and Stockton-On-Tees CCG, many of whom are involved in nursing and health promotion.

FLU VACCINATIONS - 2021

OVER 65's

We are able to go ahead with our flu vaccination clinic for Saturday 25th September 2021. Please contact the practice to book an appointment Thank you.

FACE COVERINGS

As from 19th July face masks will not be mandated.

At Eaglescliffe Medical Practice we will continue to wear PPE including masks and ask that everyone attending the practice continues to wear a mask or face covering. By doing so we are protecting you, ourselves and patients who are clinically vulnerable or unable to be vaccinated.

IF you choose not to wear a mask, please make this known when you have been given a face to face appointment as we may have to make alternative arrangements in order to protect patients and staff. This may be attending when the practice is empty or waiting outside for administrative information.

Our practice figures are showing a dramatic increase in positive COVID cases, especially in the younger age groups with some been double vaccinated. Please remember we also have patients in vulnerable and older age groups with medical needs coming into the practice.

Thank you for your ongoing support - by taking these precautions we are able to remain open to provide healthcare to our patients without risk of infection.
