Practice Social Worker 

Niall Rotherham

Often people are directed to their GP for support with any social difficulties that they are experiencing. While well informed, the GP is not always the person to see for these issues. By having Social Workers in GP surgeries our patients are able to get a systematic service with their best interests as the main aim. Please contact reception to organise contact with Niall.

Niall is particularly active in the local community in Downpatrick, running a number of groups that have benefited not only our patients but patients from other surgeries.
