Welcome to Carronbank Medical Practice

We provide comprehensive NHS primary care services to help you manage your health and well-being.

We are fortunate to practice in the multi-functional environment of Denny Health Centre in Carronbank House which is located right in the centre of he town. We share the building with our community nursing staff, physiotherapists, podiatrists, pharmacists, mental health nurse and speech therapists in addition to the local social work, one-stop shop, and housing departments. A social work run Day Care facility is also on site.

We are an established training practice and have an extended practice team which includes GPs, practice and district nurses, pharmacists, physiotherapists, nurse practitioners and mental health nurses. We can offer a choice of face to face, telephone or video consultations, and some information about your problem will be asked for by our receptionist to ensure that the most appropriate person can help you at the best time. This is entirely confidential. You can also use our eConsult service but this is aimed at dealing with problems which don’t require a face to face appointment. All eConsults are answered by email.

If you are worried about a child with fever or cough, please look at this booklet called “When should I worry”
