Our History

Our History
Serving Coventry Communities Since 1985

Coventry GP began as a single-handed General Practice founded by Dr J Sihota on 1st October 1985 at a purpose-built surgery located on the corner of Broad Street and Stoney Stanton Road.

Since those early beginnings, the practice has continued to grow and evolve alongside the local Coventry community, developing into a modern, forward-thinking NHS GP practice serving thousands of patients across the city.

Over the years, Coventry GP has expanded both its clinical team and services while remaining committed to the same core principles on which the practice was founded:

• compassionate patient care
• continuity of care
• accessibility
• professionalism
• community-focused healthcare

Today, Coventry GP operates across two practice sites:

• Jubilee Health Centre
• Broad Street Surgery

Together, these sites provide healthcare services for more than 13,000 patients across Coventry and surrounding areas.

Growth and Development

As healthcare and the needs of the local population have evolved, so too has the practice.

Coventry GP has continued to invest in:

• modern healthcare access
• digital systems
• multidisciplinary working
• staff training and development
• enhanced clinical services
• improved patient access

The practice now provides a broad range of NHS services including:

• same-day urgent care
• chronic disease management
• women’s health services
• mental health support
• joint injections
• minor surgery
• vaccinations and preventative healthcare
• online consultation access through Rapid Health

A GP Training Practice

Coventry GP is proud to play an active role in training the next generation of healthcare professionals.

As a recognised GP training practice, we regularly support:

• GP trainees
• multidisciplinary healthcare professionals

We believe strongly in education, continuous improvement and maintaining high standards of patient care for the future.

Looking Ahead

While the practice has grown significantly since 1985, our focus remains the same — providing safe, compassionate and accessible healthcare for our local community.

We remain committed to embracing innovation and improving patient experience while continuing to deliver the personal, family-centred care that has been at the heart of the practice for decades.
