Rachel is a nurse at Tend Hagley Park with an extensive background in primary health care. She enjoys the variety that general practice offers and values the opportunity to care for people at all ages and stages of life.

She has a special interest in diabetes management and particularly enjoys working with babies and toddlers.

Outside of work, Rachel enjoys spending time with her family and dog, getting creative with crafts and making the most of the outdoors.

I love the variety of general practice and the chance to care for people from all walks of life - especially little ones!
