Meet our fantastic healthcare team! We are here to take care of you and make sure you feel comfortable. Our team includes skilled doctors and friendly staff who all work together to help you stay healthy.
Our doctors work in a partnership and as a group. Although you are registered with a named doctor, you may see any of the doctors in the partnership. However, we encourage you to remain with one GP for routine appointments to improve continuity.

| An Advanced Nurse Practitioner (ANP) is a highly trained healthcare professional who combines expert nursing skills with advanced clinical knowledge, enabling them to assess, diagnose, and manage a wide range of health conditions. Working autonomously or alongside doctors, ANPs can prescribe medication, order and interpret diagnostic tests, and develop treatment plans. Their role is vital in improving patient access to care, reducing waiting times, and supporting continuity of treatment. |

Reception
|
All our Receptionists are trained Patient Advisors who provide an important link for patients with the practice and are your initial contact point for general enquiries. They can provide basic information on services and results and direct you to the right person depending on your health issue or query. Patient Advisors make most of the patient appointments with the GPs, ANPs and nurses. They also perform other important tasks such as issuing repeat prescriptions and dealing with prescription enquiries, dealing with financial claims, dealing with patient records and carrying out searches and practice audits. They work under guidance from the Partners. |
