Practice Nurses
The practice nurses work closely with all members of the practice team and provide a wide range of procedures including asthma care, cervical smears, family planning and new patient checks. The nurses are also able to give travel advice and injections as well as general nursing work such as dressings, ear syringing, blood pressure checks, removal of stitches and any other referrals which your doctor may arrange. Appointments for the practice nurses are made through reception.
