We offer nurse consults focused on health checks, nutrition, and weight management, with plans to expand to wellness screenings. Our team performs around 12-15 operations weekly, with flexible nurse shifts on a rota basis to ensure variety and work-life balance.

With new equipment and exciting building developments underway, it’s an exciting time to join us.

Working hours

We offer flexible working hours with the option of either 5 days, 8 hours per day, or 4 days, 10 hours per day, Monday to Friday. There is a requirement to work 1 in 3 Saturdays from 8:30am to 12:30pm, with time off in lieu during the week.
