For GPs and Commissioners

The Trust is keen to ensure that it provides the information about our services that GPs and commissioners of our services need. A large amount of information is published on this website, including a user friendly replication of the data published within the Choose and Book Directory of Service. This website also provides additional details such as contact details for the consultants and information about team members.

If you cannot find what you need or have comments on how we could improve the site for GPs, please email Irwin Wilson or telephone 08454 223263.

GP Consultant Events

The GP/Consultant events have now been running successfully for over two years. We are keen to keep the programme and events fresh and relevant and are therefore rethinking a new series. Feedback has suggested that a programme with local joint events in each of the main localities is the way forward. If you have any views about useful topics or any comments in general please contact Irwin Wilson irwin.wilson@glos.nhsuk or Sean Elyan sean.elyan@glos.nhs.uk

We will publish the new programme for the autumn.
