• Wargrave House - Past and Present

  Wargrave House is a Grade II listed building, the main structure of which dates back as far as the early 17th century. Much modified over the years, it has been associated with the medical practice since early in the 18th century when Thomas Cam Senior and Junior lived and worked in the building. The present practice began in the 1920s when Mr William Ainslie moved to Wargrave House, joined in 1926 by Dr Charles Walker. After World War II came Dr Stallard and Dr Schofield followed by Drs Davidson, Teal and Pimblett.

  In 1986 we became a training practice for future general practitioners. We usually have a GP Registrar attached to the practice for a six to twelve month period. A GP Registrar is a fully qualified doctor who has already spent three or more years working as a hospital doctor in a variety of medical and surgical specialities. On occasions we also have medical students attached to the practice. In 1991 the first computers were introduced.

  Wargrave House is situated in the heart of Hereford. There is no parking for patients on site but there are several public car parks nearby. We have access for wheelchairs and prams to the rear of the building. Prams can be left in the new conservatory extension. We have a toilet suitable for the disabled and baby changing facilities on the ground floor.
