Receptionists
We hope you find our receptionists friendly and efficient. They have the difficult job of keeping both doctors and patients happy. They are trained Care Navigators; so to enable them to direct you to the appropriate service you will be asked for a brief indication of your illness. All our staff members receive training and appreciate the need to fully protect your confidentiality.
