The Woods Surgery
Supporting the health of the Clane community since 1992
The Woods Surgery has been part of the Clane community since 1992, growing from its early days in Liffey Lawns into a modern family practice led by Dr Clare O’Flynn and Dr Michael Kennedy. Since joining the practice in 1996, they have helped shape its commitment to high-quality, patient-focused care.
Today, our experienced team of GPs, nurses and registrars provide comprehensive healthcare across all ages, with specialist expertise in women’s health, men’s health, paediatrics and chronic disease management. As a GP training practice, we’re also proud to support the development of future family doctors.
Our focus is simple: offer clear, compassionate and reliable care, built on trust and strong relationships with our patients.
Our doctors and healthcare professionals are highly trained and dedicated to patient care.
We prioritise listening to our patients, ensuring everyone feels heard, respected, and well cared for.
Our practice uses up-to-date medical technology and electronic health records for seamless care.
Easily accessible on Long Mile Road, with adjacent parking available.
