We try to minimise administrative work through effective workflow and the triage of pathology results. (Typically 7-10 letters a day and 7-10 results)

We are experienced in supporting GP's who are new to Practice, providing a supportive learning environment. We also are keen to help those who wish to develop their special interests.
