About Walsh Medical Practice
The Walsh Medical Practice has a long history of providing General Practice care to the people of New Ross and the surrounding area for over 100 years. Our aim is to provide high quality, dignified, evidence based, empathic, patient-centred care for our community. We want to engage and empower you to achieve the very best health outcomes for you.
The Practice was initially started by Dr. Michael Walsh in his home, Airmount House, New Ross, in the early 20th Century. In the 1950’s Dr. Thomas Walsh, son of Dr. Michael Walsh took over the Practice. The Practice continued, joined by Dr. Martin Burke in 1972, Dr. Michael Walsh in 1982, Dr. Mark Walsh in 1984 and Dr. Nicola Walsh in 1995. Since this time, The Walsh Medical Practice has seen a number of changes and it has evolved, most recently with two new Partners, Dr. Thomas Walsh, great Grandson of Dr. Michael Walsh, & Dr. Louise Gaffney Wilkinson.
We have a dedicated and dynamic team of five Doctors, two Nurses, one General Practice Assistant, a Practice Manager & Administrative Staff.
