"Caring and Patient Nurse Team"

About: Dr Curran & Partners

After years of avoiding the GP I realised I needed to put my health first. I had a consultation with with a doctor who told me my next steps including a blood test with the nurses. I explained that I am incredibly scared of needles and avoid any situation that may mean I need one but the nurse I had was excellent, very patient, didn’t get frustrated with me crying or slowing the process down and just made the whole experience easy. I’d be confident to go back if necessary.

Dear Melissa,

Thank you for your feedback. A fear of needles is more common than you would think. I am glad the team put you at ease and has left you confident to return. We will pass on your comments to our practice team.

Yours sincerely,

Mr Raj Kumar

Practice Manager
