About the Practice

  • We are a 4 partner rural practice with a GMS contract with Forth Valley NHS Board. While Killearn has a population of approximately 1700 people, our practice list size is around 4200. The list is made up not only from Killearn residents but from neighbouring villages including Balfron, Drymen, Strathblane to name a few.
  • In line with most Forth Valley practices we are paper light and have EMIS as our clinical system
  • We have a weekly multi-disciplinary clinical meeting and a monthly meeting, both of which are attended by the ST’s. 
  • In addition to our formal scheduled education times we ensure there is ample opportunity throughout the day for case discussions with the other clinicians
