Lapworth Surgery is located beside the Stratford Canal close to its junction with the Grand Union Canal. The Surgery was opened in 1991 by Drs Rory & Barbara Nicol to serve the residents of Lapworth and neighbouring villages. In November 2009 Dr Gareth Rowland and Dr Caron Bates took over the practice following the retirement of the Nicols.  We are happy to accept patients who live in the villages of Lapworth, Rowington and Baddesley Clinton. Our practice area is defined by the Warwickshire County border to the north, the A3400 to the west, the route of the M40 to the south and Ordnance Survey grid reference SP21 688 to the east. A map depicting the practice area is available in Reception.

We are a dispensing practice.

Our consulting and treatment rooms are all situated on the ground floor and the premises is accessed via a ramp and automatic front door. A disabled toilet and baby changing facilities are available.
