A new NHS medical centre will open in Manchester city centre later this month — and is part of a drive to build ‘new, exciting, and family-friendly neighbourhoods’ in the area, according to city leaders.
New Jackson Medical Centre is located in the southern end of Deansgate, on the ground and first floors of Elizabeth Tower. Some 8,000 sq ft in size, it will house three GP surgeries — Cornbrook, The Docs, and The Vallance — it will eventually be a hub for around 20,000 patients.
As well as the GP surgeries, it will be able to offer community health services, plus ultrasound and dermatology clinics. It forms a key part of the new Great Jackson Street neighbourhood, which will also include 7,000 new homes, a 210-place Crown Street Primary School — that’s set to open in September 2024 — once built.
