Forest View Medical Centre

Forest View Medical Centre provides NHS primary healthcare from its main Forest View Health surgery on the Abergorki Industrial Estate in Treorchy. Serving patients from Treorchy, Ynyswen and surrounding Upper Rhondda communities, the practice brings together GPs, nurses, pharmacists, healthcare assistants, physiotherapy support and mental health professionals within one local medical team.

Alongside everyday GP appointments and ongoing health advice, the surgery offers a broad range of clinics and services. These include vaccinations, family planning, cervical screening, chronic disease management, blood-pressure monitoring, medication reviews, learning-disability reviews and warfarin monitoring. Patients may also be able to access minor surgery, joint injections, specialist menopause consultations, substance-misuse support and in-house physiotherapy.

Appointments and administrative requests can be started online through the practice's Patient Portal, by telephone or by visiting the reception desk. Depending on the patient's needs, consultations may be offered face to face, over the phone, or through text or email communication. Home visits are available in specific circumstances for eligible registered patients who cannot reasonably attend the surgery.

The main site provides accessible facilities, including automatic entrance access, accessible toilets, hearing loops, car parking and designated disabled parking spaces.
