Assura Group complete £1.5 million Stockton medical centre investment

Healthcare property developer and investor Assura Group has announced the completion of its latest project, the £1.5 million refurbishment of the Queens Park Medical Centre, in Stockton.

The investment from Assura Group ensured refurbishment of the current premises, in addition to a 5,400 sq ft two storey extension.

Re-modelling of the internal area has doubled the existing floor space to improve both waiting areas and modernise consulting rooms, while works also included the creation of an 800 sq ft pharmacy facility, which will be occupied by Norchem Ltd.

The Medical Centre remained operational throughout the entirety of the 32-week programme, resulting in minimal disruption to the practice’s patients.

Paul Warwick, project manager at Assura Group, said: “We’re very pleased to have completed the scheme, which will provide revitalised primary care for the residents of Stockton, as well as easy access to pharmacy services within the same space.

“We are committed to partnering with GPs wherever possible to deliver modern, high quality facilities across the UK, and the Queens Park Medical Centre is a great example of how this can be delivered quickly and efficiently.”

Graham Wynn, practice manager at Queens Park Medical Centre, said: “The newly extended and refurbished premises will make a tremendous difference to the services we are able to offer our patients and the environment which they and our staff function.

“I was particularly pleased with the understanding and accommodating nature of the main and sub-contractors who managed to deliver the project with a minimum of disruption whilst we continued to function.”

Tolent was the principal contractor for the scheme, which was designed by P+HS architects.
