Reception Supervisor Cara, Healthcare Assistant Vanessa and Patient Services Advisor, Julie, are pictured with Dr Ali who presented them with their gifts:
Cara said: 'I first started here as a Receptionist, straight after finishing my A-Levels and then took the step up to Reception Supervisor a couple of years later. My role involves working closely with the Office Manager to ensure the office runs smoothly, including interviewing and training new Receptionists. I enjoy the variety and new challenges and find it very rewarding being able to support such a fantastic team of Receptionists.'
Vanessa said: 'After moving to the area it was daunting starting afresh in a new practice. However I needn't have worried, I love the variety that my role brings and that there is scope to learn and grow. Most importantly it is the relationship I have with my team who are not just colleagues but have become good friends. It's a pleasure working here. '
Jules said: 'I can't believe it's been five years, the time has gone so fast and I've learnt so much. I was a florist before I took this job so it was a massive career shake up for me. I enjoy working here most days. As a receptionist the job has its interesting moments but the team is amazing and a great support. Bring on the next five years.'
Thanks to each and every one of you for being part of our brilliant team.
