GP Registrars

We usually employ one or more GP registrars. These fully trained doctors are gaining experience in general practice at the surgery under the supervision of one of the partners. They are usually with us for six months.

To help in training a videotape may be taken of some consultations. You will always be informed in advance if this is taking place and you can decline to take part if you wish.

We have an excellent team of experienced nurses who are involved in managing a wide range of health problems.

The nurses have routine appointments throughout the day and also a number of urgent appointments every morning. They administer childhood vaccinations as well as giving up-to-date travel health advice and immunisations.

A weekly leg ulcer clinic has been established for thorough assessment and treatment of affected individuals; patients need to consult the GP/nurse before attending.

All of our sisters are fully trained in family planning including emergency contraception (the "morning after pill"). They also perform routine cervical smears and can deal with many minor gynaecological problems.

Our nurses can also offer support and treatment for patients wishing to stop smoking.

We hope you find our receptionists friendly and efficient.

They have the difficult job of keeping both doctors and patients happy.

All our staff receive training and appreciate the need to fully protect confidentiality.
