Stamford team welcome new doctors 

Dr Khela

Dr Waddingham and Dr Khela are both new to the practice and joined as GP Partners while Dr Abdelnour was a registrar here and became a salaried GP.

Dr Khela worked as a GP abroad before training in the UK. He joined Stamford as it is a big surgery that offers scope to develop.   

He said: ‘There is a wide patient demographic and more services than at my previous practice so there are lots of areas of interest and where I can expand my knowledge and do more. I have an interest in women’s health and I deal with contraception, coils, implants and long acting reversible contraceptives plus menopause and minor surgeries for skin and lesions. I have a special interest in paediatrics and I am hoping to finish more studies in dermatology this year. The team here is really amazing and it is very busy.’

Dr Waddingham

Dr Waddingham said: ‘I have recently relocated to the area from North London where I did my GP training and had been a partner for six years in Enfield.  It has been a long-term decision based on great schools, environment and work opportunities in the area to make the move out of the big city.

I look forward to being part of a friendly and welcoming team and continuing to practice general family medicine.  I have a special interest in dermatology, children and women’s health including coil and implant fitting.’

Dr Abdelnour

Dr Abdelnour worked in Peterborough City Hospital before training as a GP. His final year was at Stamford and he liked it so much that he wanted to stay.

He said: ‘I like the team here, the managers, partners, admin, reception, everyone so I thought that I would like to work with a group like that. I get support from the team and there is always a Partner to go to if I need help or advice.

During the first year I will be settling and getting used to the additional responsibilities, however I would like to specialise in a particular area once I am embedded in the practice.’

Dr Romek Wiles

Dr Tom Eames

The Stamford team is also delighted that Dr Romek Wiles has now become a GP Partner, while Dr Tom Eames, a familiar face, has returned. He said: ‘After a year working away from Stamford, it is great to be back with the Stamford Surgery team again. I look forward to working with everyone across our two sites and continuing to provide healthcare to the people of our town.’
