Dorema Surgery

Welcome to DOREMA SURGERY

Dorema has always housed a doctor's surgery. The building was originally erected for Dr John Laird in late 19th century. As was usual in those days he practiced from his own home. Patients would wait in his dining room and the sitting room acted as the consulting room.   Dorema remained Dr Laird's house and consulting rooms until he died in the 1940's.

The villa was divided into an upper and lower flat at that time and the surgery was continued by Dr Peebles-Brown and Dr Wilfred Robinson.   Since then the surgery has gradually expanded and in 2006 Dr McLellan and Dr Simpson purchased the upper flat, have re-instated the staircase and now the whole building is again surgery premises.  Upstairs is totally admin and downstairs houses all clinical staff with five surgeries and a treatment room suite.  The building has now all the advantages of a modern health centre but the charm which goes with an old building. 

The doctors are therefore proud of continuing a tradition which has lasted well over 100 years.

We are open  8am - 6 pm Monday to Friday and we are closed on weekends. Appointments are available during the hours listed below. To see a doctor or nurse please telephone us or come into the surgery to book an appointment.
