About the LLR LMC

The Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Local Medical Committee (LLR LMC) is a completely independent body recognised by statute.  We are a democratic organisation with a governing body of representatives, elected by our members.

Our members consist of all NHS General Practitioners and their team in Leicester, Leicestershire, and Rutland who can access our services in advising, supporting and representing General Practice.
