Welcome to Beds and Herts LMC
“Beds and Herts LMC Ltd aims to support GPs and practices to aspire to excellence in patient care, by advising on and promoting the development of all aspects of general practice”.
Your Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire Local Medical Committee is proud of its strong values in Leadership, Expertise, Integrity, Adaptability and Collaboration.
We support the development of high-quality general practice as we know that it means patients receive excellent health care when GPs are supported to be at their very best. All our work promotes teamwork and multidisciplinary practice, and our services and support facilitate this wherever possible.
We do not condone poor performance or poor professional behaviour but we recognise that GPs do need support when times are tough and in particular we will come to the aid of colleagues going through performance or disciplinary procedures in order to ensure they are dealt with fairly and appropriately.
Our motto is that ‘If it’s good for patients, it’s good for GPs’.

In the coming years we have a chance to show what GP leaders and general practice can do. With confidence we can take greater control of what is happening in our areas, with vision we can reconnect our fragmented primary and community healthcare teams, with collaboration we can support each and every practice, with increased investment we can improve services that have been stretched to breaking point and with boldness we can seize every opportunity and restore our great profession and service.
