About us

Angel Hill Surgery is a well-established, single-site GP training practice caring for approximately 14,000 patients. We have six GP partners, an experienced practice manager and a settled, committed team of around 45 staff who take pride in providing high-quality, patient-centred care. We also benefit from PCN shared staff, who work both on site and remotely.

We are proud of our strong foundations, including our established training ethos, our excellent dispensing service supporting approximately 3,500 patients, and the strong relationships we have developed across primary care.

We are a successful independent GP partnership that values continuity of care, teamwork and a supportive working environment. Whilst maintaining the strengths of traditional general practice, we continue to develop and adapt, including investment in digital services, improved patient access and sustainable ways of working. We are an active member of the Bury St Edmunds PCN.
