5 minutes with… a GP and Assistant Medical Director

Dr Nicky Davies is General Practitioner at Beech House Surgery and Assistant Medical Director for Central Betsi Cadwaladar UHB. A year after Consultant Connect Advice & Guidance was made available in her area, Dr Davies talks to us about what she thinks of the service.

Dr Davies told us ‘The service really is very useful, and it’s extremely easy to use. I can pick up the phone any time and get prompt advice on my patients. If in the future I have a similar patient case, I might not need to ask the same question again.’
