Nottinghamshire villages with a GP surgery close to the centre
In some Nottinghamshire villages the nearest GP surgery is 0.1 km from the centre; in others it is more than 6 km away. Here is where each is, and how to check whether a practice is taking new patients.
Being able to walk to the doctor matters more as you get older, or if you do not drive. Some Nottinghamshire villages have a surgery in the middle of the village; in others the nearest is a proper drive away.

Before you rely on it
- Distances are in a straight line from the village centre, not along roads.
- The data includes branch surgeries as well as main practices, so check the opening hours of the nearest one.
- A nearby surgery is not a guarantee you can register. Practices set their own boundaries, so check with the NHS Find a GP service for the address you are considering.
