The Peninsula Practice

Dr Alison Jones is leaving The Peninsula Practice in June to begin a new venture in her life so she can fully use her Ophthalmology Speciality.  The surgery will be very sorry to lose her and have enjoyed working with her in the last 16 months. We are also very excited for her in her new venture and wish her all the best. If patients would like to wish her well, please drop cards into the surgeries or email the surgery at iesccg.peninsula-practice@nhs.net and the staff will compile them for her when she leaves.

We are pleased to announce Dr Jafar Shahabi and Dr Mohammad Jubayer will be joining the clinical team this summer.

We are here to help keep you in good health. The practice covers an area known as ‘The Peninsula’ with the addition of Aldeburgh, which stretches from the River Deben in the south to the north of Aldeburgh town. This is a large rural area which inevitably affects the way we work. We are determined to provide an exceptional service where getting appointments, establishing diagnoses, treating promptly and with personal care are priorities for all of us.

The Peninsula Practice has purpose-built surgery buildings at Alderton, Aldeburgh and Orford, all with full disabled access. Alderton and Orford surgeries both have fully operational dispensaries. In addition there is a branch surgery at Hollesley Village Hall on a weekly basis, when you can collect your repeat medications.

The practice as a whole is open every weekday from 8.00am-6.30pm at different sites.

Because of the large practice area, it may be necessary in some situations, to travel a little further to another branch of the surgery within the practice in order to be seen sooner. Whilst you may live close to a particular surgery/branch, you are considered a patient of The Peninsula Practice and as such are welcome at all sites.

We welcome new patients so if you live in the area please get in touch.

NHS Friends and Family provides us with feedback from you our patients.  

We value your feedback both positive or negative, it informs us on what we are doing well and how we can improve.
