Misuse: Westbury is a hub site for Haringey Substance Misuse Shared Care
service. Three of our GPs are OST prescribers (e.g.
methadone) - opportunity for permanent GPs to get involved (would require RCGP
Part 1 Substance Misuse certification in due course)

and transformation could support the practice with innovative products (would
attract additional remuneration)

What makes us

working environment - We maintain clear standards and address challenging
conduct amongst the patient population to ensure all staff can work
