Shamila Irfan

Shamila Irfan is a Practice Nurse at a private medical clinic. Her purpose as a nurse is firmly anchored in compassion and a sincere desire to improve the lives of others. She works in a person-centred way and puts weight on patient education, on the view that someone who understands their own condition makes better decisions about it than someone who has simply been given instructions. She is conscious of how important it is to stay knowledgeable and flexible in a fast-changing healthcare environment, and keeps her clinical practice current. She also values teamwork and is glad to work alongside other medical specialists because she believes effective healthcare rests on a multidisciplinary approach rather than on any single clinician.
