🌟 Colleague of the Month – Andrea 🌟

This month we’re celebrating Andrea who is one of our dedicated nurses, and whose knowledge, steady approach, and genuine kindness make a real difference every day.
She’s the person you can turn to for clear advice, thoughtful support, and dependable patient care.

Andrea quietly goes above and beyond, bringing experience, compassion, and real professionalism to everything she does.

A big congratulations to Andrea on being our Colleague of the Month — so well deserved. 💛

✨ Wishing Carol a Happy Retirement ✨

We recently wished farewell to Carol as she retired after many years working with us in the practice. We are grateful for the time she has been part of the team and for the contribution she has made behind the scenes over the years.

We hope this next chapter brings her plenty of rest, enjoyment and new adventures.
Congratulations on your retirement, Carol — from all of us at CVGP.

Let’s all wish her well as she begins this new chapter 💐
