The practice can be traced back to the 1900s and has been on the present site since the 1950s when the surgery was part of the house of Dr Graham Shephard. A single storey building was built to house the practice adjacent to this in 1967 and, in 1994, the premises were extended to include the house built on the site of the original surgery. That was called Watledge House and the new premises continue the name. This website has been designed to tell you about the practice and the services that we offer. Please read it carefully. We trust that you will find it helpful and informative.

Tewkesbury Health Care Project

Watledge Surgery, along with the other two surgeries in Tewkesbury, have joined forces to build a new health care facility housing all three practices.
Our aim is to provide all of our patients with the best care possible in one modern centre near the Wheatpieces, opening in 2012. To find out the full details, click here www.tewkesburysurgeries.org

Tewkesbury Hospital

Tewkesbury Hospital is a community hospital.
There is a general ward and an elderly care ward mainly for rehabilitation, a nurse-led minor injuries unit, operating theatre, physiotherapy and out-patient departments. The doctors attend to patients on the wards.
Blood tests and x-rays are also carried out at the hospital by appointment.

If You Have A Disability

The practice building was designed to help people with disabilities. There is easy access for wheelchairs and none of the areas for patient use have steps. The toilet is easily accessed. A hearing loop is available for the hard of hearing. Please ask at reception.

Parking

We have very limited parking space at the surgery and would like to keep this available as far as possible for elderly and disabled patients. Please help us to do this by using nearby streets or car parks as much as possible. (Nearest public car parks are behind Tewkesbury Hospital and behind Safeway - accessed via Station Road.)
