Veteran Friendly

Leeds City Medical Practice are accredited as a Veteran Friendly GP Practice.

Being accredited by the Royal College of General Practitioners acknowledges we can identify veterans and collect data to improve future health provision. It also means that the NHS is able to meet the health commitments of the Armed Forces Covenant, which says the Armed Forces community, including veterans, should face no disadvantage in accessing health services. Understanding the needs of our veterans will help us identify their healthcare needs better.
