If you’ve never considered joining your local Patient Participation Group, it’s a fantastic time to try. Patient participation doesn’t need to be time-consuming or difficult, but it really helps practices and the wider NHS build services that work well for patients.

Today we are celebrating our fabulous receptionists for all their hard work and dedication.

Our team are the heart of the practice – they are often the unsung heroes of the workplace — they are the first point of contact for patients, staff and visitors.

Whether it’s answering phones, managing bookings, greeting patients with a smile, or juggling multiple admin tasks, receptionists and our wider admin support team help keep the practice running smoothly.

You are all superstars!
