About Us
Welcome to Kilmacthomas Health Centre
Welcome to Kilmacthomas Health Centre, home to the family practice of Doctors Micheal Griffin, Sean McElduff and Ellen Hayes. Micheal and Sean have been providing care to the local community now for a combined total of 57 years! We are delighted to have been joined in the last year by Ellen, who brings a whole new dimension of youth and feminine modernity to the practice.
We try to practice with an ethos of traditional personal medical care, with easy and prompt access to the doctor of your choice, giving every one the time they need, and based in rational and compassionate medical principles.
Despite the constraints of the pandemic we hope to be able to continue to provide the same kind of care into the future with a new and growing team and to adapt to circumstances by making the best use possible of technology, as in our new e-mail prescription request service.
We regret the difficulty in making contact with the practice in the last year due to the huge volume of call being received. We are happy to receive suggestions from you as to how to improve our service.
