Disabled Access

Wheelchair accessibility is very important in the present day scenario. Which is why both entrances are adapted. It ensures that the people with problems in normal movement can access all the facilities without help according to their requirements.

The provision of accessible toilet facilities is a fundamental and crucial part of inclusive service delivery. An accessible toilet is designed to meet the majority of needs of independent wheelchair users and people with mobility impairments.

Bicycles

Regular cycling can reduce the risk of chronic illnesses such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes and stroke. It can also boost your mood and keep your weight under control. At the Bridges Medical Practice, we promote cycling by choosing a location that has the benefits of locking your cycle when at the Doctors.

Step-free access in our building ensures customers don't have to use escalators or stairs to move between the street and the practice.
