Our
Team
The practice manager, reception and administration
staffs are all here to help you make the best use of the services which
we provide. They attend initial and continued training programmes in
order to provide an efficient and friendly service.
We believe
they have a difficult job and it is only with their help that the doctors
can organise their work and see as many patients as possible in the
time available.
We welcome any suggestions for improving our
services. If you have any ideas, questions or complaints, please speak
to our practice manager or, in her absence, please speak to her deputy.
