The focus of Dr Connelly’s professional values are as follows;
I wish to care for my patients using the best medical evidence available to me, in a patient centered way. I dedicate myself to my professional development so I can continue to be the best doctor I can be for my patients. I aim to provide one to one care for my patients as much as possible as I greatly value ‘getting to know’ my patients as this is in their best interest. Whilst times have changed, the traditional role of the general practitioner as a health provider of care is of great importance to me.
