Doctors' Profiles

Dr Andrew Blaikley comes from London and qualified at Guy's Hospital. His hospital experience was gained in London and Kent before coming to work locally at Poole Hospital. He joined the practice in 1989 but since then his golf handicap has unfortunately suffered due to work and family commitments!

Dr Stuart Dague qualified from Southampton Medical School in 1988. He initially worked as an anaesthetist, before moving to Dorset in 1992 to train as a General Practitioner, and has been a partner at The Farmhouse Surgery since 2000. His medical interests are varied, including general medical problems and cardiovascular medicine. Outside of work he and his family enjoy various outdoor sporting activities - usually involving being in or on the sea.

Dr Melanie Graeme-Barber was brought up near Cambridge and qualified from Southampton University Medical School in 1994. She continued her training in Poole and Bournemouth Hospitals prior to joining the practice in 2003. She specialises in women's health and also provides an in-house dermatology service.

Health Visitor Service

The Health Visitor offers regular checks of your child's development from birth until starting at school, providing an ideal opportunity to discuss any worries or queries you might have.

The Practice would expect that all children will receive their childhood immunisations unless there is a specific medical reason not to do so. The health visiting team can be contacted on 01202 486801 between 9.00 and 10.30am or a message can be left on the answerphone. Remember if your child is unwell - ring the surgery on 01202 488486. Outside these times please use the out-of-hours service or contact NHS Direct on: 0845 46 47.

Reception Staff

Our receptionists are here to help access your appointments, collect your prescriptions or answer your queries. They may need to ask you for further details about your requests when you at the surgery or when you telephone. This is to ensure we can assist you as speedily as possible. They are often busy helping someone else so you may have to wait for their attention. Your patience is appreciated.

We also have a team of staff behind the scenes working hard on your behalf to organise the services we provide, communicate with other areas of the NHS and keep your records up to date.
