Welcome message from Jo Gilford - Practice Manager
Welcome to Danetre Medical Practice
Here at Danetre Medical Practice we are a compassionate and committed provider of clinical excellence.
Our staff are motivated to achieve their maximum potential and deliver diverse, local and patient centred services.
To ensure we provide first-rate, cost effective healthcare we work closely with our patients and listen to what they have to say. After all, patients are the key part of any Medical Practice so we take pride in giving them a voice.
The Practice itself is located in close proximity to Daventry Town centre in a modern building adjoining Danetre Hospital (a community hospital which opened in September 2006) offering a wide range of services and delivering a high standard of care.
Also attached to the Practice operating independently is Boots Chemist.
Contained within the site is a purpose built free car parking provision for visitors and staff.
All employers are expected to park within the car parks adjacent to the boundary of the site allowing the car parks nearer the Practice and Hospital to be used by patients visiting the site.
Important Update from Dr James
As from Monday 3rd December 2018 we are asking our Patient Services Advisors to request a brief outline of your symptoms when we book you an appointment.
This is for us to ensure that you see the right clinician for the problem you are calling about.
All of our staff are committed to patient confidentiality, and are experienced in dealing with sensitive information.
Working closely with our GP's, we have a team of Advanced Practitioners, who can see you for many minor illnesses, such as coughs, colds, chest infections, urine infections, aches and pains and minor injuries. Our Advanced Practitioners can also prescribe should you require medication for your problem.
Did you also know we may be able to offer you an evening or weekend appointment at a local surgery, for a range of illnesses? Please ask our Patient services Team for more information.
Please help us to help you.

Accredited GP Training Practice
Dr Trudy Lewis is a qualified trainer within the practice
General Practice Training
Danetre Medical Practice participates in the General Practice Vocational Training Scheme, whereby fully qualified doctors wishing to enter general practice receive three years’ further training. From time to time one of these doctors (GP registrars) will be based here for a period of up to 12 months and will be available for consultations. Dr Trudy Lewis is the qualified trainer.
At any time if you do not wish to have a trainee GP or medical student observing at your consultation please feel free to bring this to the attention of the receptionist or GP. At no time will this decision prejudice your care with us.
As part of their training the GP registrars have to video record some of their consultations as part of their assessment. You may be asked by the receptionists if you would be happy to take part in this if you have an appointment with the GP registrar. At any time you are able to say “no” to being videotaped and this will not prejudice the way your consultation is viewed or handled in any way.
If you are happy to be videotaped the receptionist will ask you to read a letter about the process and to sign a consent form. At the end of your consultation, if you don’t wish the tape to be used, you can state this and the tape will be erased.
