After an incredible 27 years at Garforth Medical Practice, we’re wishing the happiest retirement to Vikki, who is officially hanging up her hat after serving as our Project/Facilities Manager.

Vikki’s dedication, knowledge, and behind the scenes magic have shaped this practice in more ways than we can count.
Her commitment over nearly three decades has made a lasting impact on our team and our patients, and she will truly be greatly missed by us all.❤️
We were so glad to give her the gorgeous send off she deserves on Friday.

Vikki, we wish you nothing but happiness, relaxation, and exciting new adventures in retirement—you have absolutely earned it!🥂✨

We are currently experiencing technical difficulties this afternoon across both Garforth and Elmwood Surgeries and are unable to use our systems properly.

We will be booking urgent appointments only.

If you are due to have an appointment today, this will still go ahead where possible; however, there may be delays, so please bear with us.

If you have any queries, please refrain from calling the surgeries as we cannot currently access patient information. If you require urgent medical advice, please contact NHS 111. In the event of a medical emergency, please call 999.

Thank you for your understanding.
