The role of Advanced Nurse Practitioners – or ANPs – has in recent years to offer patients more choice and increase the availability of appointments.
Our three ANPs – Lesley Ransome, Jane Rodger and Sabrina Smith – offer appointments covering a range of common medical conditions that people may previously have seen a GP for.
“As ANPs we see patients in the surgery, and visit them at home. We want to ensure patients receive the best care possible.”
– Lesley, ANP
