Welcome to York House Medical Centre Online

Your House Medical CentreAlthough there have been doctors in Stourport since the town began in the 1760s, the first medical practice to use York House was that of Drs Robinson and Giles in approximately 1902. York House was built by a successful merchant named Andrew York in 1789 and it passed into the hands of Dr Robinson on his marriage to Miss Worth, a daughter of the carpet manufacturing family of that name. He was joined in practice by Dr McArthur in 1933 who continued in practice until 1970 together with the two Dr Mackies. York House was sold in 1962 and No 21, sited on the foundations of the old stable block, became the practice building.

Since then the practice has expanded, new partners have arrived and the town has grown. The premises were extended in 1989 with the purchase of No 20 York Street and have since undergone another major extension with the purchase and reamalgamation into the practice of York House itself. There are now seven doctors in partnership as well as a salaried GP and an associate GP, making 9 doctors at the surgery which serves approximately 13,000 patients and is the largest doctors' surgery in the town.
