Dr Fleming receives her ‘GP of the Year’ award
Congratulations to Dr Sarah Fleming, Ballymoney Family Practice who was recently awarded ‘GP of the year 2023’ in Northern Ireland by the Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGPNI).
The ‘GP of the Year’ award is a patient-nominated and patient-judged award which recognises the tireless dedication of GPs who go above and beyond to provide outstanding levels of care for their patients.
Dr Fleming said: “Being a GP is a challenging but truly rewarding job, and hearing that we are able to make such a positive impact on people’s lives is what makes the more difficult days worthwhile.”
Dr Ursula Mason, Chair of RCGP Northern Ireland, commented: “The record number of nominations we received for our Annual Awards this year speaks to how highly people across Northern Ireland value their local GP surgeries, even amid the intense pressures we are facing. I want to thank each and every patient who took the time to nominate our GPs and Practice Teams. I also want to warmly congratulate my colleague, Dr Sarah Fleming, for this well-deserved accolade.
“We know that when patients come to us, they may be going through some of the most difficult times in their lives, and colleagues like Dr Fleming exemplify the empathetic, patient-centred care which can make all the difference in the world.”
