Harrogate doctors' practice to rebrand

by Newsroom

| 21 Dec, 2022

Dr Moss & Partners medical practice will be known as Moss Healthcare Harrogate from February 1, 2023.

A doctors' practice that has been looking after patients in Harrogate for three-quarters of a century will be changing its name in the new year.

Dr Moss & Partners was founded in 1947 – before the advent of the NHS – and has clinics opposite the convention centre on King’s Road, in the Jennyfields area of Harrogate, and in Killinghall.

From February 1 it will be known as Moss Healthcare Harrogate and have a new logo.

In a letter sent today to to the firm’s 19,600 patients, senior partner Dr Nick Taylor said:

"Our decision to change our identity reflects the role of modern general practice and the different healthcare specialists patients can now access.

"Our practice now incorporates a much wider range of healthcare professionals and non-clinical staff.

"If you're unwell, or living with a long-term condition, the best people to help aren't necessarily doctors."

In addition to its doctors, the practice now also provides services from nurses, healthcare assistants, advanced clinical practitioners, first-contact physiotherapists, pharmacists and social prescribers.
