Guest Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Those that are still living are now at Lowe st health centre.For info.Before then they moved sideways into a small new block opp the betting shop.They had one of their surgery door windows there as a keepsake.The old surgery became Osborne Chemists then empty to now become a firework shop of sorts.The place they moved into became an ADDICTION centre that was moved with other addiction centres to Lincoln House.The surgery that became Addiction they moved to is up for sale.They also had surgery in Junction lane that is now closing and being merged with their patients at Lowe House centre.

Phyll Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Here's some info. from the new practice site. "The practice was established by Dr O’Donovan’s Grandad, Dr Fox at 6 Baldwin Street, St Helens in 1889 with a branch surgery at 77 Armsbridge Road, Sutton. Dr Dennis O’Donovan joined the Practice in 1920 and the Practice moved to 51 Ormskirk Street, St Helens in 1941. He was in partnership with Dr Caffey and Dr Burrill. Dr Gerard O’Donovan joined in 1963 and was joined soon after by Dr Mather, Dr Filletti became a member of the practice in 1984. In 1992 the surgery moved to the premises of 51A Ormskirk Street and in 2010 moved to the current purpose built premises at the Lowe House Resource Centre, 103 Crab Street, St Helens and have a branch surgery at 47 Junction Lane, Sutton, St Helens." http://www.ormskirkhousesurgery.co.uk/ppg.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiss Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 the doctors in Ormskirk st 1950s was doctor O'Donovan dr coffee and dr burrill. it was next to a monument masons (didn't say much for the doctors) with a display of headstones outside and next to that was the scala picture house which lennon's turned into a supermarket. in the 1960s the doctors were dr Donovan jr, dr burrill,and dr mather. I believe the practice as originally started by dr foxon who was my doctor in the 1940s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was also a coal merchant and owned a number of streets in the area including one he named O'Keefe Road after either Dr Gratton or his father. I was born in 1952 and lived the first two years of my life in Park House and was named after Dr Gratton.

Doreen Melling Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 My mum was Dr O'Donovan's first birth in 1922. He was the loveliest, kindest old fashioned family doctor, he came out to see me on Christmas Day when I had measles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
