What We Do
Welcome to
Generation Health, Castleknock & Monkstown
Generation Health Medical Clinics was founded by Dr Nina Byrnes. The practice started as a GP clinic in Castleknock, Dublin 15. This has been enlarged with the addition of a second medical surgery in Monkstown, Co. Dublin. Nina is known as a hardworking, compassionate and trustworthy doctor. She is well respected among patients and medical colleagues alike. Nina has a deep understanding of the health concerns and needs of those attending a GP and what they want from their local clinic. Generation Health was set up with the mission of creating a true Family Clinic, one that provides first class, 21st century health services, for all generations, without compromising on attention to the dignity, wellbeing, quality of life and holistic care of every individual who attends us.

Stay Well
The team here at Generation Health wants you to lead a long and healthy life so we place a strong emphasis on preventive healthcare both through health checks in the surgery and through the education of our patients, doctors and nurses alike.
Our Dr Nina Byrnes also promotes preventive health at a national level through her participation in radio, print and TV media. This committment to, and belief in the importance of preventative healthcare, is shared by all of the doctors in our Castleknock & Monkstown clinics.
