Nurse Practitioners

At Cantilupe Surgery we have two very highly trained and experienced Nurse Practitioners.

A Nurse Practitioner is a registered nurse who has completed specific advanced nursing education at higher degree level, and is trained in the diagnosis and management of common as well as complex medical conditions.

Both of the nurse practitioners have developed special interests in particular areas of medicine.

Sister Sam Stewart

  • Diabetes Renal (kidney) disease
  • Rheumatology (joint and soft tissue inflammatory disease – including skills in joint injections)
  • Respiratory disease (including Asthma
  • Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease)

Sister Joanna Evans
Joanna has developed a very high level of knowledge in the management of patients in two important areas:

  • Cardiovascular disease (including coronary disease, angina and arterial disease)
  • Dermatology (skin problems)
