stupid question i know but humour me! what are the members of the team in a GP surgery? i've thought of: gp, practice nurse, receptionist, visiting specialists (eg. physio, clinics...) ... and then i got stuck!

GP
Practice Nurse
practice manager
receptionist
admin staff
phlembotonists (Spelling!?)

attached to GP:

health visitor
district nurse
specialists: physios, occupational therapists etc.
macmillan nurses (cancer)

i'm sure there are a few more, but these are all i can think of at the minute.

some larger surgeries will have X-Ray and ECG equipment and may hold special out reach clinics run by hospital staff - dermatology, obstetrics, diabetes, etc.

How can you forget the patients?!? With no patients, there is no team!

and the patients' carers - especially if the patient is very young or GAGA

*GAGA is the senior section of MENSA*
