Stirchley Medical Practice was founded in 1973 to serve the three Telford New Town estates of Stirchley, Brookside and Randlay. The founding partners, Dr Andrewes and Dr Chuter, had a radical vision of providing holistic care for the whole community out of one building. Instead of treating everything with pills, they gave people time to talk. The practice gained a national reputation for excellence.
Over the years scores of younger doctors came here to train as GPs, and many of them have never left. Despite the many changes in society and the NHS over the last 30 years, Stirchley Practice holds true to the founders vision of providing the best possible holistic care for the whole community.
