The practice is a training practice with a Practice Registrar - a fully trained doctor who is receiving additional training in General Practice. Video surgeries form part of the continuing training of the Registrar and you may be asked if you will consent to have your consultation recorded.
THE PRACTICE TEAM
The Practice Nurse
Our practice nurse, Sophia Polatol, is available by appointment every day. She runs many of our Health Promotion Clinics including our asthma and diabetic clinics and also carries out cervical screening. We also have a treatment room nurse, Karen Martin, who works Monday and FRiday mornings and provides general nursing clinics.
The Practice Manager and the Administration Team
Our practice manager, Diane Magrath, and the administration team are here to help and guide you. They are bound by a code of strict confidentiality and have been trained to take essential details sympathetically. This allows them to inform the doctors of important information about patients' queries.
The Health Visitor
Our health visitor, Judith Anderson, holds a Health Visiting Clinic on Thursday mornings at the practice. Judith visits mothers from when a child is 11 days old until they are five years old. She advises on subjects such as feeding and immunisation, but will be happy to discuss any health topic with patients.
The Midwives
Our midwives, Carrie and Ann, provides an antenatal clinic in the practice on Thursday mornings. Both are available to give help and advice to expectant mothers.
The District Nurses
The district nurses provide home nursing care and services for patients who are unable to attend the practice. Please do not request the services of our district nurses if you are able to attend the practice. District nurses are not employed by the practice but can be organised if required.
