The Lakeside Practice

The Lakeside Practice We are a local GP practice in the heart of Askern, Doncaster. Here at The Lakeside Practice, we care for a community of over 9100 patients.

We are a practice of five GP partners and two salaried GPs, assisted by an Advanced Nurse Practitioner, three Practice Nurses, two Health Care Assistants and a Phlebotomist. In practice we also have Physiotherapists, a Dietician, a mental Health Practitioner and a number of clinical Pharmacists. In addition, we currently have four GP Registrars working with us. From time to time we employ locums to cover staff absences. The team is supported by a dedicated Reception and Admin team who are able to help you find the most appropriate appointment and sort out any administrative issues you may have such as sick notes or checking on hospital referral. The surgery has full disabled access and facilities.

Children's Mental Health Week, 9th-13th February 2026

Children’s Mental Health Week is a reminder that every child deserves to feel safe, heard, and supported 💛

Let’s take time to listen, encourage open conversations, and remind young people that their feelings matter. Small moments of kindness and understanding can make a big difference in a child’s world.

The HPV vaccines are now being rolled out across our local schools. If your child is in Year 8, it’s time to keep an eye out for those consent forms. This isn't just about one virus—it’s about protecting our young people from a range of cancers later in life💉

Missed the school session or home educated? Call the team on 03000 211 840 to check eligibility and arrange a catch-up appointment.
