Welcome
Welcome to Posterngate Surgery.
We are a 7 Partner GP Practice situated in purpose built premises in the centre of Selby, covering a radius of about 7 miles. We operate two branch surgeries, one in Cawood and one in Hemingbrough, which are only open part of the week. Details are given on the relevant icon.
We have a full Primary Health Care Team, details of whom can be found on the link below.

Consulting Times
These vary day to day for individual doctors and nurses, and details can be obtained from our receptionists.
There are surgeries held throughout most of the day. In addition, we have specific clinics at various times during the week.
All consultations are by appointment only, which can be made by the telephone or at the reception desk.
Where to find us
The main surgery is situated at the junction of New Lane and Portholme Road. This is about 200 yards from the pointer on the postcode link site.
Cawood surgery is situated in Rythergate, about 100 metres beyond the traffic lights.
Hemingbrough surgery is opposite the junction of Main Street and Finkle Street.
Disabled Access
Our main surgery has full disabled access, with automatic front doors, and all patient services on the ground floor. There are 3 disabled parking bays within the surgery car park. For people who have mobility problems, but are not in a wheelchair, we have access to the surgery via the back door. This is kept locked, for security reasons, but there is a call system to reception and remote unlocking.
In the waiting room, we have a loop system, for patients using hearing aids. We also have a visual call system.
In addition, we have a portable loop, which can be taken into any of the rooms for patients who have particularly problems with hearing, and need extra help on a 1 to 1 basis.
We regret that our branch surgeries are both converted from other use, and do not have easy disabled access. In particular, Cawood Surgery has a large step into the waiting room, which can cause difficulties. However, our dispenser is always pleased to help, if she can.
New Patients
Our Practice list is currently open at all 3 sites.
Catchment area
To make an appointment you may contact Posterngate Surgery, or call in at the branch. We regret that we can only see patients at the branch surgeries, if they live in the appropriate catchment area.
