Dr. Gerard Murphy opened his first surgery in Ballincollig, Co. Cork in January 1991 and was subsequently appointed by the then Southern Health Board (HSE) to the Ryecourt Clinic in Cloughduv in 1993, following the retirement of Dr. Dermot Grainger.

The present surgery was completely rebuilt in 2008 and is now a state of the art facility which delivers the highest quality healthcare on the same site, where a Doctor has been serving the community for over 100 years.
