Welcome to Western Rural Healthcare Online
“We as a team endeavour to provide the local community with quality health care through advice and treatment, in a sensitive manner”.
We are 3 practices that merged into one partnership in April 2016. Castlederg Surgery is our main Surgery, whilst Newtownstewart and Ederney are our Branch Surgeries. We are a large cohesive group working together with shared skills and expertise in order to provide a higher standard of care to our patients in all 3 sites.

55 Dublin Street, Newtownstewart (below the Primary School) whilst renovations are ongoing in our building. Our telephone number remains the same

Reception Triage
When you request an appointment with the GP, our receptionists will ask you for a brief reason as to why you need an appointment. This is so that they can direct you to the appropriate person within our team which includes GPs, Practice Nurses, Physiotherapist, Social worker or Mental Health Practitioner. Or they may give you information about services or self-care options that you could access for your symptoms eg. the Minor Ailments service at the local pharmacy.
Please Note our Receptionists are NOT trying to be doctors or make medical assessments. They are duty bound to respect our confidentiality in exactly the same way as the GPs.
