White Trees Clinical Care Team

How We Can Help

We’re here for all your health needs — from acute illnesses to long-term conditions. Our goal is to provide accessible, high-quality care tailored to you.

Which appointment should I choose?

We offer face to face, video and telephone consultations. When distance or time is a factor, video appointments are a great way of dealing with issues quickly and conveniently. However, some symptoms such as abdominal pain are best seen in person so we can do an examination. You will find an example of more symptoms on this page. If you are in doubt, please call and discuss with our team.

For short follow-ups or where video isn’t needed, we’re happy to do a telephone consultation.

When booking, let the receptionist know if you like a face to face, video or telephone appointment.

Child Assessments and Medicals

These are arranged directly between our GPs and the wellbeing team/ care home team.

Adult Assessment and Medical

Our comprehensive medical for White Tree adults is a fantastic way to assess your current physical and mental health as well as identifying potential future risks.

We’ll also assess your lifestyle and suggest small changes, if needed, to improve your wellbeing.

Location: Phoenix Hospital, Great Baddow, CM2 8HN
Duration: Approximately 30 minutes

Please complete your Adult Lifestyle Medicine Questionnaire a few days before your appointment. You do not need to fast for the medical.

To book an appointment, call our reception team and ask for a “White Trees Adult Medical”.

About Lifestyle Medicine — The Six Pillars of Health

You will be hearing a lot about Lifestyle Medicine. It is a fascinating, evidence-based medical approach that uses lifestyle changes based on Six Pillars to prevent, treat, and even reverse chronic diseases. No medication, no side effects, no surgery. Just small changes that can improve not just how long you live, but how well you live.

We will be running fun, interactive, and practical education sessions on Lifestyle Medicine and the Six Pillars— helping you understand the science and apply small changes that create lasting impact.

The Six Pillars:

• Healthy eating - Learn how the foods you eat influence your mood and overall health through your gut microbiome. Learn simple, sustainable changes that can positively impact your wellbeing.
• Physical activity - Move more, sit less! Even small amounts of daily activity can lift energy, mood, and resilience.
• Mental wellbeing (Stress management) - Learn simple, science-backed ways to reduce stress and help calm your body and mind.
• Sleep - Understand how quality sleep repairs and restores your body, and how to achieve it.
• Minimising harmful substances and behaviours (e.g., smoking, excessive alcohol, social media) - Learn how smoking, alcohol, and screen time are adversely affecting our health and how to minimise the effects of these.
• Healthy relationships - Human connection matters. Discover how relationships, purpose, compassion and kindness can transform health.
