Welcome to Cornford House Surgery and Fulbourn Health Centre
Our dedicated team are here to diagnose and treat illnesses and ailments, provide management of long-term conditions in specialist clinics, and promote well being through health education. We also provide various additional services such as contraception, vaccinations, smear tests, child health surveillance and maternity services. Where appropriate and after consultation we provide various investigations and treatments including blood tests, heart traces, joint injections and minor surgery.
Technology also means you can now do a lot of things from the comfort of your home such as order a repeat prescription or cancel an appointment, check your results or view your medical records as well as checking whether an appointment with a nurse or a doctor is more appropriate for you

Would you recommend us to your friends and family?
Cornford House Surgery and Fulbourn Health Centre want you to have the best possible experience of care. The NHS Friends and Family Test is a way of gathering your feedback so we can continually review our service.
It is based on one simple question:
“How likely are you to recommend our service to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment”
Your feedback will help us learn more about what you think of your experience – what you like and what you think we could improve. Ultimately you’re helping us to make changes that will ensure we can offer the best possible care.
