I work in a general practice surgery in Shrewsbury which looks after approx 6000 patients. My job involves seeing patients with acute and chronic medical conditions and accessing hospital services for them if needed. I carry out 2 clinics a day seeing patients in 10 minute appointment slots and undertake home visits to patients unable to get to the surgery.

I am a keen sportswoman and spent many years playing lacrosse both locally and nationally. More recently I have started playing netball in a Shropshire league and also have taken up rowing, sailing and skiing
Favourite food

Yorkshire puddings and chocolate(not together!)
If I had one wish….
- Apart from eternal youth, wisdom, contentment and happiness……… I would wish to only work a four day week!

We think your favorite food is not quite complete or accurate. Charles says if it alright to eat yorkshire puddings with golden syrup then why not with chocolate?
Cecil thinks that you have yorkshire puddings and chocolate in the wrong order.

Never give up on the Chocolate!

Hmmmm. Melted chocolate on Yorkshire pudding could be a top seller. You don’t mention that Lacrosse and Hockey are dangerous sports. Rowing and Sailing sound to be a bit safer but I worry about the risk of drowning. Skiing! Oh my!
Contentment and Happines, those I agree. Permanent youth could become boring. Disco’s at 103?

I am a friend of Amy Shenton. I was very interested in your blog about the healthcare system in the US, as I used to live there. I didn’t realise that they wrote off the debt for the unemployed! I had thouht it was a fairer system until I learned that! I currently work at North Staffs hospital as a BMS and I think a combination of private and NHS would be better, so if you wanted tests done quickly you could pay a top up fee!
