Spacious, modern medical centre changes the lives of 6,700 patients in Rowner, Gosport. The £2.5m practice is for 4 - 6 GPs providing healthcare services.

The demography is such that the patient group comprises of a high proportion of young people, single mothers from service families and people of all ages suffering the chronic effects of social deprivation. As such, the Brune Centre is seen as a welcome addition to the community providing much-needed services for a range of requirements.

 

Bringing together a range of primary healthcare professionals, this new development will support and enhance delivery of primary care services within the community.
