Immediate action required: Merger Between Orchard Family Practice And Parkwood Family Practice - Update


As you are aware, Parkwood Family Practice and Orchard Family Practice were planning to merge on 28th April 2025.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, this merger is postponed until later on this year. We will share further details once another date has confirmed.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Yours sincerely,

Dr S T Selvan


Immediate action required: Merger Between Orchard Family Practice And Parkwood Family Practice


There are no plans to close either of the practices.

Orchard Family Practice would become the main site and Parkwood Family Practice would be by definition a ‘branch site’ but still be fully operational as it is now. Both sites will retain their websites and phone numbers for now and will adopt very similar ways of working.

The proposed date for this merger is 28th April 2025.

From 25th April 2025 computer systems at Parkwood Family Practice will not be accessible so only emergency appointments will be available.

Please note any medicines due to be prescribed at this time are requested in advance at this site.
