about

Oakwood Medical Clinic is the partnership of Dr Nicola Black and Dr Geoff Lavery. Between them they have many years experience working as GPs in D15, in both single-handed and group practices, dealing with medical card and private patients alike. As a result, they have intimate knowledge of the local population health needs, strong links with local health service providers and they have established themselves as hard working, enthusiastic and trustworthy GPs. In addition to their vocational GP training, each doctor has attained further qualifications in their chosen areas of special interest, providing for a broad synergistic skills-base within the clinic. Over a number of years they have worked closely together and have forged a strong bond based on their mutual shared view of the future of general practice – maintaining the principal values of primary care while embracing modern developments. With this in mind they have developed the Oakwood Medical Clinic team to enable appointment access continuity care, with choice of male or female doctors, providing an expansive range of services for all age groups.

new clonsilla clinic (closure of castleknock)

Our Castleknock clinic is now closed. We have now moved to our new purpose-built clinic in Clonsilla (next door to the old clinic, opposite the Village Vets, and in the same building as the new Complete Care Chemist and Insomnia). The clinic entrance is on the left hand side of the building.

Our telephone number remains the same (8219530).

We very much look forward to welcoming you to our new building!

We now offer on-line appointment booking for some of our GP and nurse appointments. We also offer on-line booking for our new Female Health Physiotherapist – please see the link below for details and to register for this facility.

purpose, vision and mission statement

At Oakwood Medical, our purpose is to provide expert, evidence-based and compassionate healthcare to the communities of Dublin 15. We are dedicated to fostering long-term relationships with our patients, delivering comprehensive general practice services that prioritise well-being at every stage of life.

Our mission is to offer high-quality, patient centred healthcare in a welcoming, safe and modern environment. By integrating our practices under one roof, we enhance access to expert medical care while maintaining our commitment to professionalism, confidentiality and respect. We empower our patients through education and collaboration, ensuring they are active participants in their health journey.

Our vision is to be a leading provider of primary healthcare, recognised for excellence in patient care, innovation and community well-being. As we embrace the future in our state of the art Clonsilla facility, we will continue expanding our services, attracting skilled professionals who share our passion, and nurturing our patients from cradle to grave with integrity and dedication.

Phone lines open: 8.30am – 12.30pm; 2pm – 5pm

For ‘urgent/on the day’ appointments, please call at 8.30am, as these appointments fill up quickly.

For non urgent appointments, please call later in the day, when phone lines are less likely to be congested.

ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY
As reflected nationally, there is significant pressure on scarce GP resources and an ever-increasing demand for appointments. We are doing our best to accommodate patients with appointments but regrettably, patients often have to wait to see the doctor. As a result, there has been a noticeable increase in aggressive and abusive behaviour towards our staff. We would like to remind patients of our ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY regarding such behaviour.

**** Any patient behaving in this manner may be asked to leave the practice and to find an alternative GP ***

APPOINTMENT DURATION:

Please note that a standard appointment duration is 15 minutes. This is to enable appointments to run to time, to allow for the smooth running of the clinic and to limit undue delays for others with appointments. We respectfully ask patients to book a prolonged appointment if they feel that they will need more than fifteen minutes or if they have a number of issues to be discussed. It is simply NOT FEASIBLE for a doctor to be expected to deal with multiple issues SAFELY, within a 15 minute timeslot. We would appreciate your understanding in this matter.
