💫 A Personal Message from Dr Chrissy Dunne 💫

Dear patients, friends, and colleagues,

Just to let you know that I will be retiring from my GP partnership at Penryn at the end of March.

Thank you for being so lovely to me over the years. Penryn is a truly great place — and the people of Penryn are even greater. It has been a privilege to live and work here, and to be part of this community.
I will miss you all very much.

And if I haven’t had the chance to say goodbye in person, I’m sorry — I don't really like goodbyes!

Thank you for everything.
Stay well, and keep looking after one another.
