Update on Daisy Villa GP Surgery, St Margaret’s Hope

We are pleased to announce that we have received initial expressions of interest from parties interested in taking over the Daisy Villa GP Practice. Consequently, we are now proceeding to advertise the Practice through a formal procurement process which is expected to take 8 – 10 weeks to complete.

During this process we will not be able to provide further information on this matter.

However, we are committed to keeping you, the community, informed and will update you on the outcome at the conclusion of this procurement process.

Stephen Brown, Chief Officer for Orkney Health and Care said: “I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to the community for their patience and understanding during this transition. Our top priority is to ensure the continued operation of Daisy Villa Surgery following the retirement of Drs Simon and Catriona Kemp, who have dedicated many years of service to the community.

I also wish to express my gratitude to Drs Simon and Catriona Kemp for their invaluable support and assistance throughout this process. Their commitment and dedication to Daisy Villa Surgery has been exemplary, and I wish them all the best in their retirement.”
