Lakeside Healthcare

Lakeside Healthcare is a large UK GP partnership providing NHS primary care services across multiple practices in Cambridgeshire, Peterborough, Northamptonshire, and Lincolnshire. The organization delivers general practice, chronic disease management, preventive care, and related community-based healthcare services for a patient population of around 170,000. In addition to routine primary care, Lakeside operates a Research and Innovation Unit that conducts clinical research studies on behalf of research organizations and pharmaceutical sponsors and recruits eligible patients into trials. The group is owned and operated by GP Partners and uses a centralized support structure to share functions such as recruitment, safeguarding, projects, and finance across its practices. It is a healthcare delivery organization rather than a drug-development biotech or pharmaceutical company.
