The Practice
Team
The Practice Manager
Tom Johnson is available most days and will see any patient who asks to see him during the day. If he is not available leave a message with reception and he will contact you.
Reception Staff
We are fortunate to have a well established and experienced team on reception who have been well trained to complete a variety of tasks to support patient care in the practice.
Practice Nurses
Marcia Grant and Helen Kane are available
by appointment for minor illnesses, minor injuries, immunisations, travel advice,
dressings, removal of stitches, family planning and cervical smears. The nurses
are trained in chronic disease management including diabetic and asthma checks.
District Nurses
The district nursing team is based at Belmont Health Centre. They provide nursing
care for housebound patients in their own home.
Health Visitors
The health visiting team is based at Kenmore Children's Centre. They offer
advice on child development, immunisation, parenting and health issues for the
under-fives.
Midwife
The community midwife provides regular surgeries at Kenmore Children's Centre
to support our patients.
Training
The practice is approved for undergraduate and postgraduate teaching and training.
Medical Students
Students from London Medical Schools are attached to the surgery to learn about general practice. We appreciate the help given to us by patients who volunteer to attend teaching sessions that enable medical students to learn about different medical conditions.
GP Registrars
These fully qualified doctors from the Northwick Park Training Scheme are attached to the surgery to gain post-graduate experience in general practice. A registrar will have a number of years' experience in a hospital environment typically covering Accident and Emergency, Maternity, Geriatric, Paediatric, General Surgery and other specialities.
It is normal for us to have two registrars within the practice at any one time. Each has a GP trainer that they work with (either Dr Mistry or Dr Rajani).
The registrar will:
• Consult jointly with the GP trainer
• Under guidance of the GP Trainer, provide routine surgeries.
(Consultations are reviewed by the GP trainer with the registrar.)
• Complete home visits and undertake all normal duties of a GP.
Video Consultations
During their time with the surgery registrars may video the consultation for training purposes only. The video is of the discussion with the patient only; no medical examination is recorded. You will always be asked for your consent, both before and after the consultation, if you agree to be videoed. The video is treated in the strictest confidence and is purely for the registrars' development and training.
Dietician
We have a dietician attending the surgery on Wednesdays approximately every
three weeks. Patients are seen by appointment only, after referral by a clinician.
