About the Cranborne Practice
With patients' needs at the heart of everything we do, our website has been designed to make it easy for you to gain instant access to the information you need.
As well as specific practice details such as opening hours and how to register, you’ll find a wealth of useful pages covering a wide range of health issues along with links to other relevant medical information.
The Cranborne Practice is a member of the Crane Valley Primary Care Network, or PCN.
Primary Care Networks (PCNs) are a key part of the NHS Long Term Plan, with general practices being a part of a network.
Primary care networks are the way local health services can work together to best meet the needs of the patients they serve.
The Crane Valley PCN represents four practices in East Dorset:
- The Cranborne Practice
- Barcellos Family Practice
- Verwood Surgery
- West Moors Village Surgery
For more information about the Crane Valley PCN and the services offered across the locality, visit www.cranevalleypcn.org.

We welcome your feedback
Please tell us what you think about the care or treatment you have received from us using our Feedback Form:>> Note this is for feedback only and not enquiries.
This form has been developed based on NHS national guidance to help GP Practices improve patient experience. Referred to as the Friends and Family Test (FFT), it is an important feedback tool that supports the fundamental principle that people who use NHS services should have the opportunity to provide feedback on their experience. Listening to the views of patients and staff helps identify what is working well, what can be improved and how.
FFT feedback is regularly reviewed by the Practice team and discussed with our patient Participation Group members. A summary of FFT feedback is regularly published on our FFT web page:>>
