About Chrisp Street Health Centre
Chrisp Street Health Centre is a large, friendly, modern GP practice in Poplar, Tower Hamlets. We serve the population living around Chrisp Street Market and look after nearly 15,000 patients.
We have a large team of staff including Doctors, Practice Nurses, Assistant Practitioners, a Pharmacist and a Phlebotomist (blood taker).
We work closely with our colleagues in the community including midwives and health visitors. Our Practice offers many additional services including health advocates, social prescriber, stop smoking advisor, benefits advisor, specialist drugs and alcohol worker and other specialist nurses. Please ask reception if you feel you need one of these services.
We are a training practice and usually host one or two GP trainees who are qualified doctors completing their training in General Practice. We train medical students from the Barts and the London Medical School and nursing students from City University.
We strive to offer personal, continuous care. All patients and their families are allocated their “Own Doctor” when they register. We encourage you to see your Own Doctor wherever possible. As well as offering appointments for you to see them face to face, we can make arrangements for you to speak to your GP by phone at a pre-booked time or electronically via an eConsult.
