How to specify 2nd column data depending on 1st column's data?

I'm trying to set up a database of information, which requires one column
listing a surgery's name (eg The Medical Centre), then I want the choice of
entries in the column next to it (for Doctor's name) to be dependent on the
surgery name. Therefore, if 'The Medical Centre' is selected for the first
list, then I want the inputter to only be able to choose Dr Joe and Dr
Bloggs, who work there, etc etc.

I'd like to do this because currently there are many errors made, with the
wrong GP being assigned to the surgery. I've already got a data validation
list going on for the surgery name.

I don't know how to do this, although I've seen it on quite a few websites -
when you select something from a drop down menu, the page refreshes, and the
next drop-down is determined by your initial answer - ie with booking flights
from/to different airports.
