Welcome to Clondalkin Family Practice!
We celebrated our first birthday in our new premises at the Clondalkin Primary Care Centre last February and are settling in well! Our team has continued to grow over the last year and you can read more about us here. As of July 2025, there will be five doctors at CFP as well as the rest of our excellent clinical and administrative teams.
We are constantly trying to improve the clinic and really want to provide a great clinical service to our patients. As always, if you have any comments or feedback, please have a word with our practice manager Ann. Please find clinic updates below.
Contacting the Clinic
Since moving to Boot Rd, our new number is (01) 9125290. When you call the clinic during office hours, you will be given a number of options via a voice menu including the option to leave a voicemail if you wish to cancel / reschedule an appointment, request a prescription or request a note for work or social welfare cert. A staff member will then get in touch with you in relation to one of these 3 specific requests.
​
In order to make an appointment, you will need to hold and speak with a member of staff in person as we will need to appropriately triage the request. We will not be able to respond voicemails requesting appointments or advice on clinical issues.
​
The option to request results, prescriptions, certs for work, appointments for smear tests etc via the website remains active and we encourage patients to use this as a first option if they have the ability to do so.
​
Giving us 24 hours notice if you cannot attend your appointment is incredibly important. It is very frustrating for us when a patient does not show and has not given us notice as it means a wasted slot that could have been used for another of our patients who may need to be seen urgently. Please remember to cancel appointments online or by phone as soon as possible.
New Patient Applications
Applications to register with Clondalkin Family Practice are temporarily on hold while we process the applications received in June. Once all of these patients have been seen and registered, we will re-open applications. This will most likely be in mid to late summer. Many thanks for your patience and keep an eye on our home page for the reactivated link.
Dr McGowan moving on to complete her training
After being with us for the last year, Dr McGowan will now move on to complete her final year of GP training in another practice. We have been incredibly fortunate to have had a GP Registrar of such high calibre as Catherine and we know all of her patients will miss her greatly. We wish her all the best as she finished up her training.
Introducing Dr Edmond Power and Dr Niall O'Gorman
As Dr McGowan leaves, we are delighted to introduce our two new GP Registrars - Dr Edmond Power and Dr Niall O'Gorman. They will be with us until July 2026 and we're sure many of our patients will get to know them well in the year ahead.

You can read more about them and the extensive previous experience here.
Notice re Artifical Intelligence Scribe Use at CFP
We are always looking at ways of innovating in order to offer you the best possible GP experience. A recent development at Clondalkin Family Practice has been the introduction of what is known as an
"AI scribe". This is a software tool that we sometimes use to document our consultations in order to free us up from typing so that we can turn to you and give you our full attention. If you have any questions about this, feel free to speak with the doctor who is seeing you.
