About Us

 At Long Stratton Medical Partnership, we take pride in being a family focused, close knit team – our ‘work family’ is how we often describe ourselves. We offer a supportive, positive culture which is well-lead, and provide regular supervision and training for all staff. 
Long Stratton is a small town in South Norfolk, 10 miles from the historic city of Norwich.  We have 11,500 patients on our list, a CQC rating of ‘Good’ and operate from both our main site and a branch site in Newton Flotman.  We are also a dispensing Practice with a dispensing list of around 5,500 patients.  We use SystmOne and run cloud-based telephony which links seamlessly with the clinical system and provides excellent functionality. 
We have completed our surgery expansion work with a new wing being added to include 7 clinical rooms. The reason for the expansion is that Long Stratton is being bypassed, 2,000 new homes are planned and therefore potentially 5,000-6,000 new patients will be joining us.
