Introduction to the Mount Road Practice PPG Podcast
Welcome to the very first podcast from the Mount Road Practice PPG. We have decided to use this platform in an effort to reach out to patients who would like to access information about the surgery in a different media format.

We very much hope that this will fill a gap, but please feel free to give us feedback on our website which can be found at mountroadpracticeppg.nhs.uk
