In the 1920s Dr John Dow, brought up and trained in Scotland,
joined Dr Banks' practice in Redditch. At this time Redditch was a
small market town. He bought a house that became the Surgery,
and another Scottish doctor, Dr Mitchell, joined him.
Dr Dow's sister worked as a practice dispenser. Dr John Dow had three sons, all of whom became doctors. Two of them, Tom and Iain, joined the family practice, whilst Bill headed for Western Australia.
Whilst Redditch was developing as a "New Town", the practice was obliged to move premises twice, but the doctors and staff (and patients) stuck together. In 1991 Tom’s son, John, succeeded his Father and Dr Iain retired shortly after. John’s sister now also works in the practice. The practice moved to a new. Purpose-built premises in 1995.
We enjoy working in a friendly atmosphere. Things are very different from the time of the first Dr John, but we are keen to maintain a family-based service, with a high quality of modern medical care.
