Frequently Asked Questions

How do I make a request to my Practice?

To make a request to your Practice select the service that you require.

You will be prompted for information about your request. When you complete a request this will be sent to your practice. The system acknowledges that your request has been sent and will let you know what happens next.

The Practice handles the requests during their normal working day, i.e. if you send a request on Friday pm the Practice won’t normally see it until Monday morning.

How do I receive the responses from the Practice?

On some services, such as Ask the Practice a question and Ask the Doctor a question once the Practice has processed your request they will send you a response. This response will be sent to the email address that you have given in the form.

For security purposes the email will ask that you verify your identification. Once you have completed this the message from the surgery will be shown for you to read.

Security of your information

This service always uses fully encrypted connections, the same security as used in internet banking. If you look at the right of the address bar, you will see a small padlock icon. This indicates that you are using a secure link and that your data is encrypted.

As an additional measure your information is held encrypted until the practice need to view it. It is then sent to the practice still encrypted and only converted to readable text at the practice.

Dr James Daniells – MB ChB (1985 Birmingham) DCH MRCGP
I qualified from Birmingham in 1985 and completed post graduate training in Derby and London. I joined Wilson Street in 1990 and haven’t looked back. Work interests include joint injections and drug/alcohol problems but I consider myself a generalist first and foremost. Outside work I am a passionate angler. I am lucky enough to be tolerated by a wife and 2 children.
Dr Jayne S Nuttall – BSc MBBS (1987 London) MRCGP DRCOG
I grew up locally near Mansfield and qualified in London in 1987. I have been a GP since 1991 initially in Kent but moved to Derby in 1999. I live in Derby with my husband and twin sons. I enjoy working at Wilson Street. I especially like looking after patients over a long period and getting to know them and their families. I hope to stay here until I retire. I feel proud of what Wilson Street achieves and hope you share those feelings – if not – let us know!
Dr Mohammad Munir – BSc MB ChB (1994 Leeds) MRCGP
I qualified from Leeds University in 1984. After a number of hospital jobs I joined Wilson Street as a Partner in 2004. I live in Derby with my wife and 4 children. I aspire to providing high quality care to all our patients and feel we achieve this at Wilson Street.
Dr Komal Raj – MB ChB (2003 Birmingham) MRCGP DCH DRCOG DGM

Dr Drew Smith – BSc (Hons) (2002 Dundee) MB ChB (2007 Dundee) MRCGP
Originally from the west coast of Scotland, I qualified from Dundee University in 2007. I began my medical career there before relocating to Derbyshire in 2009. I started GP training in 2011 with my first placement being at Wilson Street. I returned for my final year of training in 2013 and took up Partnership on completion of my training in August 2014. I have particular interests in Cardiology, Dermatology, Minor Surgery and Joint Injections. Beyond my work at Wilson Street, I am also a Specialty Doctor in Dermatology and work for Southern Derbyshire Clinical Commissioning Group (SDCCG).
Dr Larry Higgs – BMedSci BMBS (2006 Nottingham) MRCGP DRCOG
Originally from the Cotswolds, I now call the East Midlands my home, having moved here to study medicine and never leaving! I was lucky enough to join Wilson Street as a trainee in 2008 and hoped to remain as a partner, but it was not to be, and after completing training I worked in another local practice, Alvaston Medical Centre, for a little over four years. However, I am thrilled to be back at Wilson Street, as I believe it offers the highest in clinical excellence. I work full time at Wilson Street, and also do one session a week for the out-of-hours GP service. I am a GP Trainer and am also interested in palliative care and medical acupuncture, although not currently practicing. I live in Nottingham with my wife and three young children.
Dr Tia Gandhi – MuDr (Prague 2011) MRCGP, DRCOG
After spending my childhood mostly in and around Liverpool, I went to study at University abroad in Prague. I returned to complete my foundation training in Stoke on Trent. Following this, I moved to Derby where I undertook my core medical training and have remained in Derby to train as a GP. I joined Wilson Street in October 2018 as a GP associate and then became a Partner in April 19. I love being part of a team that delivers a high standard of holistic care. I live with my husband and my house bunny and when I am not working, I enjoy travelling and trying different cuisines from across the world.
Dr Emily Beattie – BSc MBBS (London) MRCGP, Dr Beattie is an Associate GP
Having started life in Wiltshire, Derbyshire has been my home from the age of 7, but I moved to Derby after finishing university in London in 2010. I trained as a GP in Derby, and first came to Wilson Street in 2015 as a trainee. I completed my GP training slower than some in 2018 having started my family, and promptly moved back to Wilson Street to join a great team as a Salaried GP and who I feel deliver great quality care. I enjoy lots of aspects of General Practice, but mostly the opportunity to get to know people over a long period. I live locally with my Husband and 2 young boys.
