“I really enjoy being an RVN at Dowding’s. Since starting here 5 years ago I have been encouraged to grow professionally, and the support I have received now helps me guide a fantastic team of nurses. No two days are the same, and we have a very varied and interesting caseload. Although some days can be challenging there is always a sense of togetherness and team spirit that I have not previously experienced in other practices. I feel anyone can confidently voice their ideas and feelings, and be genuinely listened to and acknowledged by management. My time here has professionally been very rewarding, and I am excited to see what the future holds for the whole team and the practice going forward”.
