About us

Mullion & Constantine Group Practice is a well‑established rural GP practice serving communities across the Lizard Peninsula.

We provide primary care from four sites:

Mullion
Constantine
Ruan Minor
Lizard
Our four‑site model allows us to provide care close to our patients while maintaining a strong, collaborative practice team.

Our experienced clinical workforce includes:

5 GP Partners
Salaried GPs
Practice Nurses
Healthcare Assistants
Clinical Pharmacist

Social Prescribers
Our non‑clinical team is also integral to how we work.

Our reception, admin and management colleagues are highly engaged, attend regular practice meetings and are central to maintaining safe, efficient systems and a welcoming atmosphere across all four sites.

This multidisciplinary approach allows us to make the best use of the skills within the practice and ensures our patients are supported by the most appropriate member of the team.

We are committed to maintaining the strengths of general practice – continuity, accessibility, clinical autonomy and knowing our patients – while continuing to develop modern and sustainable ways of working.

We have a strong commitment to professional development and welcome clinicians who would like to develop special interests or contribute to teaching, training, audit, quality improvement and service development.

We are situated in a beautiful rural part of Cornwall, with the coast and countryside on our doorstep and good access to the wider towns of Helston, Falmouth, Penzance and Truro.
