About Us

 

BACK TO MAIN INDEX

 

The Practice is located in a terrace of shops at the Bayswater Road end of Leinster Terrace and opposite its junction with Lancaster Gate. The Practice currently welcomes patients living between Ladbroke Grove, Edgware Road, the Westway (A40), and Hyde Park. That is all patients living in the W2 and W11 postcodes.

 

The Lancaster Gate Medical Centre has cared for people in the area since 1988 and is now run by Dr Soraya Meer (f) and Dr José Gonzalez-Garcia (m), both with a wealth of clinical experience in all aspects of Family Medicine, providing innovative high quality primary care services in the local community.

As a Practice, we are a very active member of NHS West London CCG. We are also involved as a training practice in teaching medical students.

Some rooms are at basement level accessed via a staircase but there is a large consulting room at ground floor level with wheelchair access.

Improving Access to Your GP Practice

We’re committed to making it easier for you to get the care you need. As part of a wider North West London programme, our Access Improvement Plan focuses on delivering high-quality, timely, and personalised care. Here’s what you can expect:

  • Faster access to care: We aim to offer same-day or next-day responses for urgent medical needs and ensure more appointments are available, including evenings, weekends, and Bank Holidays. These additional appointments are delivered through our Enhanced Access Hubs, in partnership with the West London GP Federation.
  • Better support for patients with ongoing or complex needs: We prioritise continuity of care so you can see the same healthcare team when it matters most.
  • Smarter use of digital tools: The NHS App and our online consultation system (PATCHS) help you get support quickly and manage your health more easily from home.
  • We’re working to answer 90% of calls within 10 minutes: We regularly check our phone data to improve response times and reduce waiting.
  • More personalised help when you need it: Our trained reception team and Social Prescribers are here to guide you to the right care — whether that’s with a clinician or community support services.
  • Ongoing improvements based on your feedback: We monitor how we’re doing and regularly gather patient feedback to keep improving your experience.
