IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING PROF FUAT'S RETIREMENT
The time has come for me to retire from general practice as a GP at Carmel Medical Practice on 1st October 2021. I would like to thank all our patients, their families, and carers that I have had the privilege of looking after over the last 35 years. I have really enjoyed my time as a General Practitioner and am humbled that I have been able to carry out this role for such a long time and had the most amazing support from my staff and colleagues over the years. I will continue in an advisory capacity ONLY at Carmel Medical Practice and will carry on conducting valuable research tohopefully help the lives of future generations. It is with sadness but also a great degree of pride that I sign off as a general practitioner. Thank you all once again.
Warm regards
Prof A Fuat
