Ascot Medical Centre is an accredited Veteran Friendly GP Practice. We are here to support people who have served in the UK Armed Forces and help them access appropriate care.
A Veteran Friendly GP Practice
Have you served in the Armed Forces?
If you have served for at least one day in the UK Armed Forces, as a regular or reservist, please let our reception team or your GP know. With your permission, we can record this in your medical record to help us understand your needs and signpost you to support.
How we can help
Our accreditation is part of the Royal College of General Practitioners and NHS England programme. It helps us identify and support veteran patients and, where appropriate, refer them to dedicated services.
Speak to a member of the practice team about your health needs or ask about our clinical lead for veterans’ health. If you have recently left the Armed Forces, please share any medical records or discharge information from your military medical centre so we can help continue your care.
