After 15 years of being part of the Queens Avenue Surgery team, Dr Maddie Phillips will unfortunately be leaving on 19th January 2027.
Dr Phillips has shared the following message:
"Dear Patients,
After 15 years of sharing in your health journeys, I will be leaving Queens Avenue Surgery on the 19th of January 2027 to work in a practice closer to where I live. This decision has not been easy, and it has been a privilege to care for you, your families, and be part of the local community.
I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for the trust you have placed in me over the years. It has been an honour to share in your health journeys and this last fifteen years has been the most rewarding part of my career so far. I can vouch that your ongoing care has been given considerable thought and will be in the excellent hands of my colleagues.
With warm regards and best wishes for your future health and happiness,
Dr Maddie Phillips"
We are, however, pleased to confirm that we have recruited an Advanced Clinical Practitioner, Ben Alford-Higgins, who will be joining our team in January. Ben has been providing some cover at the practice recently, so some patients may have already met him.
Patients currently registered with Dr Phillips will be reallocated to other GPs within the practice. We are currently finalising the plans for this, and patients will be made aware of their new GP in early January. We ask patients to not contact the practice to request a specific GP at this time - provision for this will be put in place alongside affected patients being informed of their new GP.
