Hello, and a very warm welcome to the official

site for Mairches Medical Practice (Hawick & Galashiels).

At Mairches Medical Practice, our top priority is simple: To provide excellent care to all of our patients.

If you need an urgent on the day appointment you will see one of our Advanced Nurse Practitioners (ANPs). The ANP team is supported each day by our duty doctor. If you would rather book an appointment with a GP you can still do so at reception but this will be their next available routine appointment.

We are working constantly on improving our processes and utilising technology and any other means available to us to communicate those with you. We welcome any constructive feedback that will help us improve ourselves.
