About St Martins
St Martins Health Centre became part of the Healthcare Group in 1991. It
moved to the new location which was opened in March 1999. The new premises were
purpose built and are part of the development of the Galleries du Manoir. The
Surgery is located next door to the Wine Warehouse. There is a large car park
which is shared with the other shops on the site.
There is a Pharmacy adjacent to and opening into the Surgery, which is run by a separate company
called Healthcare Pharmacies (there is a link to their Web Site on the
Links Page). There is always a Pharmacist on hand to answer any
questions you may have or help with your medications.
