Nursing team

Nurse practitioners

We have three highly experienced nurse practitioners. Nurse practitioners are qualified and registered nurses with additional qualifications.

They are able to deal with diagnosing and treating minor illnesses and some chronic disease management. This may involve writing a prescription or making an onward referral if necessary. They work closely with the GP’s and have ongoing support when required.

The surgery nurses run clinics for long-term health conditions such as asthma or diabetes, minor ailment clinics and carry out cervical smears.
