Doctor or nurse?

Many routine medical services can be performed by a nurse and this will often save time waiting for a doctor’s appointment.

If you are making an appointment for any of the following then you should book an appointment with the nurse.  Otherwise please book an appointment with a doctor – this need not necessarily be with your usual doctor.
