Grove House Surgery
Situated deep in the heart of the finest part of old Batley, and as such part of the local conservation area, our building has been a surgery for over 100 years, expanding and adapting to changes in medicine and the increasing population of the town. Batley itself is an old mill town, which was very wealthy at the turn of the century. The decline of the textile trade led to increasing unemployment and economic decline. Winning “City Challenge” funding in 1992 ensured much needed regeneration of this forgotten town. We are situated next to The Mill Village, Batley, one of the UK’s biggest retail mills and are also 5 minutes walk from Batley train station which has links to Dewsbury, Leeds and beyond. We currently have 4 full-time doctors and a part-time nurse practitioner as well as our practice nurses and ancillary staff. Our team have regular clinics at both Grove House surgery and our branch surgery at Chickenley. Please see individual profiles to the left and appointments for further information.
Chickenley Medical Centre
A branch of our main surgery in Batley, we are situated centrally in Chickenley, originally a farming hamlet, and halfway between Ossett and Dewsbury. Our team have regular clinics at both branches so please see appointments for further information.
Declaration of Average GP Earnings
For the year ending 31 March 2016 The average pay for GP's working in Grove House Surgery in the financial year ending 2016 was £101,123 before tax and national insurance. This is for 4 full time GP's, 2 locums who worked in the practice for more than six months. NHS England require that the net earnings of doctors engaged in the practice are publicised, and the required disclosure is shown above. However it should be noted that the prescribed method for calculating earnings is potentially misleading because it takes no account of how much time doctors spend working in the practice, and should not be used to form any judgement about GP earnings, nor to make any comparison with any other practice.
