For many years now, Northcote House Surgery has maintained a branch surgery called Sycamore Cottage Surgery, located in Bell Lane, Fenstanton.

We have newly recruited Dr Ibrahim Atchia as a full time salaried doctor and Laura Wavell as senior nurse acting as nurse practitioner.

Jacky Toase (Practice Nurse) and Emma Holmes (Healthcare assistant) have all joined the Practice this year.

With a new team of doctors and nurses on board, we have recently looked at different ways of improving our service in the Sycamore Cottage Branch in order to benefit our patient population in Fenstanton Village and surrounding villages.

Doctors and nurses will be running clinics every day. Please see the table below for a breakdown of all clinics held at Sycamore Cottage Surgery.

The Role of the Lead Nurse. Apart from monitoring patient’s chronic diseases, Laura’s advanced training means that she is more than capable of treating lots of conditions that you would once have had to see a doctor for.

With Reception open every morning between 8.30 and 11.30 am and between 3.30 and 5.30 pm every afternoon except Tuesday, it allows patients the flexibility to pop in and book appointments or order their medication in conjunction with Fenstanton Pharmacy who also provides an excellent service.

This is the service we intend to offer immediately. However, clearly it would be foolish to have clinicians sat around with no patients to see so have you any thoughts on what other services we can offer. Why not pop in and leave your suggestions at the Reception desk and remember, our patient lists are still open.
