Students

Medical students and Nursing students attend the practice from time to time. We hope that you will cooperate with us and help the students to learn about general practice. However, you will be informed of their presence in advance, and if you do not want them to be present at a consultation, your wishes will be respected. This will not affect your treatment in any way.
