Advanced Nurse Practitioners

Advanced Nurse Practitioners are registered clinicians, qualified to a Post graduate level but have come from a nursing background rather than medical school.

​

Advanced Nurse Practitioners are experienced clinicians that work as part of GP teams in surgeries in Lichfield and Burntwood assessing and treating patients independently.

​

Seeing an ANP is very similar to seeing a GP as they will assess patients, order and interpret test results and can prescribe medications.

​

There are some limitations to what medications ANPs can prescribe depending on their professional registration.

​

​There may also be certain examinations that an ANP would not perform depending on their background and training
