Registrar GPs

We are a training practice for doctors who wish to work in General Practice. These are fully qualified doctors working under our supervision; please accept them as a valued addition to the team. Part of this training will necessitate that on occasions there will be video recording of patient consultations. This will not take place without a patient’s consent and any intimate physical examination will not be recorded. The camera will be switched off on request.

Locum GPs

When necessary we do use locum cover for doctors who are on leave, for professional reasons or when attending meetings/seminars.

Our Advanced Nurse Practitioners have undertaken further training and are qualified to examine, diagnose, and treat. They offer appointments, carry out home visits and work in close conjunction with the doctors and nurses. Our nurse practitioners can prescribe, refer and also provide holiday cover for doctor’s clinics.

Advanced Nurse Practitioner

Advanced Nurse Practitioner

Claire qualified as an adult nurse in 1996 from Kingston University. She has worked in a variety of nursing roles where she has undertaken many extended practice courses, particularly in surgical care. Combining Claire’s roles in clinical practice and leadership with her desire to work at an advanced level has led her to complete the Masters level Advanced Nurse Practitioner qualification at Bournemouth University. Claire has recently joined the team at Wyke Medical Practice and is looking forward to the challenge and privilege of working in general practice.
When not at work Claire enjoys spending time with her family and friends, drinking good coffee and setting herself running challenges.

Our practice nurses offer a wide range of nursing services by appointment. They can help you with dressings, removal of sutures, injections, travel advice, childhood immunisations and health promotion. They also assist the doctors in minor surgery and are always available to offer professional advice.
