Access at Old School Surgery
Our premises are not purpose built however we do provide wheelchair access as far as possible. We will assist all patients as necessary should these not meet their needs.
We do not have the privilege of patient parking facilities however we do try to keep two car parking spaces at the front of the building for our disabled patients as a drop of point this is not solely designated disabled parking.
Access at Grove Road Surgery
Our surgery is accessible to patients using a wheelchair. East Sussex Council has also provided disabled parking spaces at intervals along Grove Road, some of which are close to the surgery.
