General Practitioner / Medical Director
Dr Vivake Roddah is a GP with professional interests in Dermatology, Minor surgery and Occupational Medicine.
He completed his GP training in the Oxford Deanery and has had the opportunity of working with patients from many different backgrounds.
He is based in the west midlands, but also works in Milton Keynes. Dr Roddah has had further training in the practical dermoscopy, as well as skin excision procedures and joint injections.
Dr Roddah is also a busy father to two daughters, whilst keeping fit by running and when time permits, skiing and playing tennis.
Having taken up the role as Medical Director for Summerfield Healthcare, Dr Roddah strives to make primary care services accessible to all patients without a long waiting time.
“I feel that working as a private doctor really gives me time to fully evaluate patient’s concerns. Without the burden of box ticking to meet criteria, I am able to refer patients quickly and effectively which is often not the case in non-private settings.
I feel privileged to be able to help patients by removal of unsightly skin lesions, which they may have suffered for many years. As many of them are turned away by their NHS services, we can offer them an alternative solution and thereby help to improve their confidence.” – Dr Vivake Roddah
Due to the recently announced lockdown in England, Summerfield Healthcare is currently only able to offer a limited number of clinical services including:
For some services we continue to offer such as health checks and minor surgery we are now providing COVID-19 testing for all patients and Doctors. This is mandatory due to the proximity of the practitioner, the duration of the appointment and multiple clinicians also being involved in your treatment. An additional £10 will be included in the appointment fee at the point of payment to cover the cost of COVID testing, and your booking confirmation will reflect this requirement. This is not required for blood testing due to the short duration of appointments and reduced risk of exposure.
If you cannot find the service you are looking for or it is not available to book due to the lockdown, please enter your details below and the service you require and we will contact you when the service resumes. Please remember that all COVID testing services are continuing during lockdown.
