Get to know the Nurses at The Park Medical Practice...
The Nurses are multi-skilled with individuals having specialist areas of expertise. Practice nurses and District Nurses work as one team providing appropriate care in the home or surgery.
If you require advice on any illness or a health related matter you can ask to speak to a nurse if one is free, if not we will be happy to take down a contact number and call you back.
Practice nurses can be seen by making an appointment through reception.
