Elm Tree Surgery is actively involved in research This means we are part of studies that involve anonymised data being shared, which can inform the Department of Health regarding flu epidemics, prescribing information etc. Not only does this help us keep up to date it also means the quality of our work is constantly being monitored. It also means that our patients can be offered the opportunity to be involved in research studies that we support, which are approved by ethical committees ensuring they are appropriate and safe.
