Practice Changes
Here at Dearne Valley Group Practice and Dearne Valley Group Practice - Goldthorpe, we have been going through lots of changes.
Over the past few months we have made lots of important changes and we acknowledge that during the transition periods there may have been times it has had an impact on our patients.
We are grateful for everyone's patience during this time and look forward to the bright future these key changes will bring.
Thank you.

Practice Merger
As of the 24th of November Dearne Valley Group Practice and Goldthorpe's First PMS Practice became one practice. We are keeping the name Dearne Valley Group Practice and the Goldthorpe site will become our branch. Our patients will now have the opportunity to see a clinician at either of the two sites. Our appointment system will remain the same so, if you wish to see a clinician simply call us on the same day you wish to be seen and arrange for a clinician to call you back to discuss your problem.
We are now using one telephone number for both practices (01709 886354) and you will be asked which site will be easiest for you to access should you need to come in. The practice merger has been a huge project that we have been working on for a long time and we believe that by doing so we will be able to provide our patients with more choice as well as continuing to provide excellent clinical care.
