Doctors

The people you'll see.

Four doctors and a nurse, each with their own room. Where we can, we book you with the same person every time, so you don't start your story again.

Dr Ruth Linden

Trained in Bristol and a GP for twenty-two years. She opened Larch House in 2011 so that appointments could run to twenty minutes, and still sees adults every weekday.

“Most of what I need to know, people tell me in the last five minutes. So I make sure there is a last five minutes.”
