About us

Situated in the north of Leamington Spa, Clarendon Lodge Medical Practice has a long tradition of serving the local community. In addition to providing the best possible care to our patients, the practice has a strong focus on education. We train new doctors at both undergraduate and post-graduate level.

Our patients play a key part in this education process by giving their consent to allow the undergraduate medical students to have a real experience in general practice and by establishing good relationships with our GP Registrar post graduate doctors.

Our educational commitment is something that the whole team is extremely proud of. This commitment is borne out by the fact that two of our current partners undertook part of their training with the practice.
