Littlewick Medical Centre

Littlewick Medical Centre Welcome to our page for the latest news, updates, and helpful healthcare tips from our practice.

Serving the Ilkeston community and surrounding areas, Littlewick Medical Centre is a GP practice committed to high-quality, compassionate care. We offer a full range of GP and nursing services, from routine appointments and long-term condition management to health checks, vaccinations, and wellbeing support. We are a training practice, supporting medical students, doctors training to become GPs, and nurses, helping to shape the next generation of healthcare professionals. Our team includes seven partners, and we also have a purpose-built branch surgery in West Hallam. In 2010, we moved into a brand-new surgery on the site of the original Littlewick practice, with disabled access and patient parking via Orchard Street. We are proud to be part of the Erewash Health Partnership, a network of seven local practices working together to provide coordinated care across the area. The partnership includes Aitune Medical Practice, South Street Surgery, Eden Surgery, Gladstone House Surgery, West Park Surgery, Moir Medical Centre, and Littlewick Medical Centre. For any clinical queries, patients should contact the practice directly. At Littlewick Medical Centre, we’re here to listen, support, and work with our patients to build a healthier community.
