Healthcare Assistant - Female

GRAHAM BROWN

Operations Manager - Male

I joined Elmwood in June 2018 and have been proud to work in various roles within the practice. I took on the role of Operations Manager in December 2021, overseeing the day-to-day running of the practice. I am also the management representative for the Elmwood Patient Participation Group (PPG).
Born and bred in Huddersfield, I am pleased to now call Holmfirth my home and feel privileged to live and work in such a vibrant community. Outside of work I enjoy reading, walking around the lovely Holme Valley countryside and being at the beck and call of my very noisy and very demanding cat!

WENDY GARSIDE

Finance Manager - Female

I joined the team at Elmwood Family Doctors in July 2010 and I really enjoy working here.  My finance role has grown over the years as it is a large practice. The whole team work well together to provide excellent patient care in a pleasant environment.

When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my husband and daughter.  I also enjoy reading, drawing, keeping fit and a glass of Prosecco or two with friends!

JENNIFER BROWN

Human Resources Manager - Female

I have worked in HR since 2004 and in this time I gained my CIPD qualification, which has given me in-depth knowledge to support my role as a generalist HR Manager. I started working for Elmwood in August 2022 and this has given me the opportunity to support the practice with its forward thinking, HR strategic approach, making it a great place to work for both existing and potential future colleagues.
Originally from Manchester, I moved into the Holmfirth area in 2014, and both my family and I enjoy taking part in community activities.

I have worked in community pharmacy for 15 years before joining the Valleys Primary Care Network in December 2022, being based at Elmwood from January 2023.

ELISABETH STEWART

Advanced Nurse Practitioner - Female

I qualified as a nurse in 2008 in Sheffield and began working on the inpatient Urology ward. After a year I moved to Cardiac Intensive Care, where I spent 5 years looking after patients following major heart surgery and completed my Critical Care qualification. I then began my Advanced Practice training in Renal Transplant. Prior to my move to Elmwood Family Doctors, I worked for the Hospital Out of Hours team for 6 years. This involved triaging and assessing patients hospital wide under all medical and surgical specialties. It is here I completed my Masters in Advanced Practice in 2018. I feel very fortunate to have joined the team here at Elmwood in 2023 and look forward to learning and practicing within a primary care setting
