Practice Team

Having worked at Greystoke during my training I re-joined the practice in 2016 as a partner. I teach medical students from Newcastle University at the practice and am very grateful to our patients for their invaluable contribution towards this. I am interested in all areas of medicine but particularly enjoy looking after pregnant women and children.

Having qualified in 2000, I commenced GP training in Yorkshire before moving to Northumberland with my husband. We now have 3 school aged children and a small menagerie of pets. I enjoy all aspects of general practice, especially elderly care, palliative care, women’s health and urology. I am also a GP Trainer.

I came to Newcastle to study Medicine and have been in the North East ever since. My clinical interests include women’s health, palliative care and mental health and I enjoy the variety of General Practice, as well as the opportunity to get to know people and their families over time. I am a tutor for 4th year Medical Students.

I grew up and trained in Northumberland, Greystoke being one of my GP training practices. I have since worked in a number surgeries locally before moving back to Greystoke in 2024. I enjoy all aspects of General Practice but have some special interest training in drug and alcohol misuse as well as an interest in Learning Disability and safeguarding. In my spare time I have a passion for music. I like to keep fit and get out walking with my wife and dog in the Northumberland countryside. I am very excited to be joining the Greystoke team!

I joined Greystoke as a partner in 2003. I am clinical lead for Diabetes, Atrial fibrillation and Hypertension (High Blood Pressure). I also work for the Northumberland Clinical Commissioning Group as Clinical information Officer and am also the Chair of the LMC (Local Medical Committee), which representative NHS GPs and their interests to the NHS health authorities.

Originally from Glasgow, I studied psychology in Aberdeen, then medicine in Newcastle where I settled to complete my GP training. I re-joined the team at Greystoke Surgery in 2017, having spent 12 months here as a trainee in 2014. My work interests include mental health and learning disability, though I see myself very much as a generalist. I also perform joint injections and enjoy medical education. Outside of work and family, my passion is running in the beautiful Northumberland countryside, ideally up at steep hill.

After qualifying from Newcastle Medical school in 2012, I worked in the Midlands before settling back in the North East in 2016. During my GP training I worked at Greystoke and returned in 2023 as a salaried GP. I enjoy the variety of Primary Care and getting to know my patients and the continuity in care this can provide. You'll often see me with a medical student (or two!) as I enjoy teaching the next generation of doctors.

I returned to Greystoke as a salaried GP after having previously worked at the practice as a trainee. I enjoy the variety that general practice offers, and the opportunity to get to know patients over time, but particularly enjoy seeing patients with acute health issues. I also work with the team at Newcastle University teaching medical students.

I qualified and trained in Newcastle upon Tyne. My personal interests include fitness, nutrition, wellbeing and family.

My clinical interests include women’s health and urgent care. I am a regional medical lead for urgent care services out of hours. I also am involved with GP training and supervision.

After working in general practice in Dubai, United Arab Emirates for five years, I joined the GP training programme in the UK. During my training, I worked at Greystoke and was delighted to return to the practice as a qualified GP. I enjoy all aspects of general practice, with particular interests in women’s health and child health. I'm also interested in community work, especially around refugee health. I'm an active member of the Sudanese British Primary Care Association, where I also lead on mentoring international medical graduates in GP training.

I graduated from Newcastle University in 2020, and have worked in the region since, rotating round various hospitals and GP practices. I joined Greystoke as a Salaried GP in August 2025 after being here as a Registrar in 2024, and as a Medical Student in 2019.

Dermatology is my main clinical interest and I run the Minor Surgery service here, removing benign skin lesions. I also fit contraceptive implants.

Advanced Nurse Practitioners are highly skilled nurses who have done further training and education to extend their skills within the area in which they work.

They are able to assess, diagnosis and treat both acute and chronic ailments/ complaints as well as manage their own caseload including follow up patients where greater complexity is required. ANP’s are able to request and interpret pathology reports including scans, bloods, as well as refer to secondary care, whether this be under 2-week cancer rules or less urgent referrals. They cover their own care homes, independently performing weekly ward rounds and are highly involved in care planning discussions and palliative care. They are active members and work alongside the GP’s. They do not cover Gynae or HRT.

I was fortunate enough to be offered a job working for Greystoke early in 2020 and joined the team mid Covid pandemic. I have previously worked in primary care in Alnwick and before that worked in community based minor injuries unit. My passions in nursing include elderly medicine and respiratory diseases, I enjoy seeing people in their own homes and environments and feel immense job satisfaction at knowing I am part of a team who deliver amazing holistic care to all of our patients. I enjoy being outdoors and meeting new people along with walks with my dog in the countryside and socialising with friends and family.
