Zero Tolerance

We aim to treat all patients courteously irrespective of race, colour, creed or sexual orientation and we expect patients to behave towards our staff in a similarly respectful manner. 

Anyone attending the practice who abuses GPs, staff or other patients will risk immediate removal from our practice list.

receptionThank you for visiting the website of The Tickhill Surgery and The Colliery Surgery. This website is intended as a source of information for patients.

We are a semi rural practice operating from two surgeries 3 miles apart, both of which are fully equipped and patients attend one or the other surgery. The majority, 5900 patients are registered at Tickhill and approximately 3350 from Bircotes / Harworth and the surrounding villages.

Tickhill is a prosperous semi rural community with some strong local farming roots. Bircotes and Harworth are mining villages, with some areas of deprivation following the closure of the local pit and other small manufacturing sites.

The practice has had a PMS contract with the local PCT since 2001, and is a high achiever of QoF points.


Practice History

Originally formed by 2 single handed GPs, one in premises at Bircotes/Harworth and the other at Tickhill, the move to the current Tickhill premises happened in 1963. As the patient list size grew both surgeries expanded moving to 3 partners, then increasing in 1975 to 3.5, in 1983 to 4.5 and in 1994 to 5 partners. We currently have 5 partners and in 2007 the Colliery Surgery moved into the multimillion pound Harworth Primary Care Centre.
