THE new Marston Medical Centre in Oxford is expected to open to the public today.

The new centre is located at Marston Pharmacy on Old Marston Road.

The facility, which houses three NHS GP consultation rooms and has the capacity to treat 100 patients a day, will serve local residents affected by the closure of the original medical centre last summer, as well as those needing access to community pharmacy services.

City councillor for Marston Mary Clarkson said : β€œThe new healthcare facility will offer a great deal of reassurance to local patients.’’
