Welcome to Freshwell Health Centre

Freshwell_Practice Welcome to the Freshford Practice. We are a six doctor dispensing practice providing medical services to about 6,400 patients living in the mainly rural area surrounded by the conurbations of Braintree, Great Dunmow and Haverhill.

We are based in the Freshwell Health Centre situated in the village of Finchingfield and have had a longstanding close relationship with our local community. We are lucky to be supported by the community through the C.R.E.A.M.E.R. Fund.

This medical practice endeavours to provide the best services to our patients as close to the community as possible.

This surgery website is used to present all our patients with up to date news and information about our practice. We will keep it current with any developments or other details that we feel are relevant to you.

The Freshwell Health Centre confidentially records telephone calls for Medico-Legal and Quality Purposes.
