Research Practice

Research can:

  • Find new and better ways of preventing, diagnosing and treating diseases or conditions
  • Test new approaches that could improve the lives of people receiving health or social care
  • Look at the costs and benefits of making changes in the community, for example, introducing exercise programmes or screening for cancer in certain age groups
  • Help us understand how the NHS and social care services can run more efficiently

To understand a little bit more about research, go to the National Institute for Health and Care Research website.

As studies become available we will post them on this page so that you can read a little bit more about each study as it becomes available.

Dr Stacey Fisher is our lead research GP working with the practice and patients in current research studies.
