Welcome to Walderslade Surgery!
Message from Dr Richard Taylor
I've been a GP in Barnsley for many years working at Walderslade. It's a great job to have and over that period I have seen lots of really good changes in the way we deliver healthcare to our patients.
Please browse our website for further information about the surgery and all the services we offer. There is information about the GPs who work here at the practice and many other health related issues.

Vascular Risk Assessment
(NHS Health Check)
This assessment is offered to people aged 40-75 years with no existing chronic disease. It focuses on factors including smoking, healthy eating, alcohol use, physical activity and emotional wellbeing.
The information gathered helps people plan for lifestyle change, giving ideas, information and support. We aim to invite all our patients that fall into this category within the next 2-3 years but please feel free to contact the surgery to arrange an appointment to see our Healthcare Assistant.
