GP Partners, former and current, reunite on Tuesday 14th April 2026 to celebrate the formal opening of the newly converted clinical space at St Mary Street Surgery.
Dr Mike Watts alongside Dr Morris relocated the surgery from the High Street to it's current location in 1986. Dr Watts recalls lobbying for this space back in 1986, and now 40 years later, the much needed space has finally been incorporated into St Mary Street Surgery.

Meningitis B Information

We understand that the recent news regarding Meningitis B in Kent is concerning for many families. To help clarify the current vaccination guidelines, please note the following:

1. Currently, the Men B vaccine is only routinely offered to babies at 8 weeks, 12 weeks and 1 year. This is because infants are in the highest risk category.

2. The Men ACWY vaccine given to teenagers at school protects against four strains, but it does not include the B strain.

Most adults and teenagers in the UK have not been vaccinated against Men B.

A targeted vaccination programme has been introduced for students living in Canterbury Campus Halls of residence at the University of Kent and to anyone that was offered the preventative antibiotic treatment as part of the outbreak (Only).

Unfortunately we are unable to provide the meningitis B vaccine to to patients outside of the routine childhood vaccination schedule or this targeted vaccination programme.

If you or a family member wish to receive it, you will need to contact a private provider, such as a private travel clinic or a high-street pharmacy.

Symptoms can include:
* high fever
* headache
* stiff neck
* light sensitivity
* a rash that does not fade under a glass

If you suspect meningitis, seek urgent medical advice from NHS 111 in the first instance.
Please do not attend the surgery, we will be happy to help over the phone if required.

🌟 Exciting News! 🌟

Starting 1st November, we will be introducing a Care Navigation tool to enhance how we support our patients.

A big thank you to the members of our Patient Participation Group (PPG) who have helped test the tool and provide valuable feedback.

This innovative tool will enable us to better match each patient’s needs with the most appropriate care pathway—ensuring care is delivered safely, consistently, and efficiently.

As a patient, you shouldn’t experience too much change. We already ask for the reason of your inquiry; this questioning may just become a little more concise and consistent.

The clinical pathways have been agreed upon by our practice’s GP Partners. These pathways align with clinical best practice and are compatible with the care you’ve come to know and trust at St Mary Street Surgery.
