Grangetown Health Centre

Deep in the heart of Grangetown, this basic but generally cheery doctor’s surgery is slightly run down and not outwardly very inviting. In fairness, though, it manages the main tasks required of a surgery with minimal fuss. With two reception windows housed in the one building, it can be confusing for patients to remember which hatch is the correct one for them. But once you’ve negotiated that trial and sat in the almost always busy waiting room, the doctors themselves are friendly and reassuring. It can represent a chore to get through on the phone sometimes to book an appointment, although that seems to be rather par for the course for many surgeries in Cardiff. There is one upside once you’re out of the building, however: only a few streets from the River Taff, a relaxing post-​appointment stroll down its banks is a compensatory tonic if your ailment is only a minor one.

Grangetown Health Centre is a branch of Butetown Medical Centre and is headed up by Dr Ravindra Kishore Tiwari (Male) who has a special interest in Paediatrics. He is assisted by a Practice Nurse (Jenny Orton), two Midwives (Charlott Westacott & Rachel Farrow), a District Nurse (Pat Plummer), a Health Visitor (Rachel Fredrick) and a Counsellor (Norma Williams).
Consultations with the doctor are by appointments only. Please call in to surgery during the time reception is open or telephone. Tell the receptionist if you feel your appointment is urgent as urgent cases will be seen on the same day.
Consultations are available to patients 16 – 75 even if not seen in last 3 years. Patients 75 and over will be seen at home if they are unable to attend surgery due to their illness.
