The Practice Team

We have a very dedicated team who are here to help you in any way they can.

General Practitioners

The practice currently has 10 general practitioners:

Our general practitioners treat acute and chronic illnesses, provide preventative care and health education for all ages and sexes and as such are fully trained to consult, diagnose and prescribe medication.

GP Registrars

The practice of Dr Lee & Partners is privileged to be a training practice. This means hospital doctors wanting to enter general practice spend six to twelve months with us and they receive support and training from members of the practice in preparation for a future career in general practice.

You may discover that the registrar may wish to videotape their surgery consultation with you. Videotaping is used for teaching, training or exam purposes only and you would always be asked to give your consent beforehand.

Management Team

Angela Gelder is the practice manager and is responsible for the overall management of the practice. If you have any comments about the provision of services by this practice, she would be very happy to hear your views and suggestions about the services offered by the practice. Sam Lofthouse is the deputy manager who assists in the day to day running of the practice and is responsible for computer management.

Practice Nurses and Health Care AssistantS

The practice has five practice nurses, Marian Scarborough, Diane Webster, Deborah Stamper, Theresa Divan, Mandy Nalias.

Our practice nurses will help you with examinations, clinics, immunisations, dressings, minor injuries, cervical smears, discussing family planning, menopause management, health promotion and ear syringing, along with a whole range of other expertise. They are also here to help you with any advice you require on pursuing a healthy life style and prevention of chronic diseases.

The practice has two health care assistants , Alison Hawley and Kelly Rimmer.

Our health care assistants will help you with new patient registrations, blood pressure checks, phlebotomy, weight checks, diet advice and smoking cessation.

Reception/Administration Staff

We have a total of 20 reception staff across the practice. Our receptionists will be able to offer you help and assistance with general matters including registering with the practice, collecting repeat prescriptions, booking in with a clinician and answer questions you may have.

Each surgery has a secretary who is responsible for all referral letters requested by the doctors.

Attached Staff

In addition to our own staff we also have other medical staff attached to our practice. These are health visitors, district nurses, midwives, mental health workers, community matrons and a physiotherapist.

Zero Tolerance

We aim to treat our patients courteously at all times and expect our patients to treat our staff in a similarly respectful way. We take seriously any threatening, abusive or violent behaviour against any of our staff or patients. If a patient is violent or abusive, they will be warned to stop their behaviour. If they persist, we may exercise our right to take action to have them removed, immediately if necessary, from our list of patients.
