Manor Park Surgery - The clinics and other services offered by our doctors surgery

Doctors

Dr Russell Brown MB ChB (1993 Leicester)

Lead Clinician and Senior Partner

I have been at Manor Park since April 1999. I am proud to be a family doctor and a Generalist and can't imagine doing anything else. I particularly enjoy the on-going relationships with my patients which has developed over time, both on an individual and a family level, as I consider continuity to be key in helping patients navigate any health-related issues they may encounter in their lives.

Administration

Lisa is our Reception Manager and joined the team in 2022. She is responsible for the smooth running of the administration team and will assist Patients in their day to day requests. Lisa will also be the first contact for any feedback or concerns a patient would wish to make.

Reception

We have a number of receptionists working hard to ensure that all patient requests are carried out and processed through the system. The role has developed over the last few years to become more complicated and demanding, so the training and abilities of the staff have increased to reflect the changing demands of the NHS.
