NURSES

Pippa Edgeley studied General Nursing in Nottingham in the UK, qualifying in 1985. She then stayed in Nottingham to specialise in Orthopaedics before joining the RAF. She spent 20 years as a Nursing Officer, specialising in in-flight care and working in a variety of clinical, administrativve and managerial positions, including postings and deployments overseas.

Pippa emigrated to Australia in 2008 after marrying an Aussie. She chose to go back to clinical nursing as she missed the patient contact.

She lives locally with her husband and two dogs, Hugo and Byron. They keep her fit by going on lots of walks – the dogs that is! She also plays golf – with her husband, not the dogs!

Ellyse joined TSAJ in late 2017 after moving from Wagga Wagga. She is a Registered Nurse with experience in surgical nursing, ICU, cardiac procedures and wound care management. She has completed a Graduate Diploma in Cosmetic Nursing at the Australian Academy of Cosmetic Dermal Science. When she’s not helping patients at The Surgery at Jerra, she also works at antoher clicnic as a cosmetic injector. She and her partner have two dogs and are avid Brumbies fans.

Amanda also works as a melanographer nurse at a dematologist’s practice in Canberra so she has a special interest in skin but not like Hannibal Lecter!  She lives locally and has four children. Amanda loves to do long-distance running.

She’s back! Nurse Angela worked for TSAJ in the early days and left in 2016. She returned to the practice in 2021 to help out with the Covid vaccine rollout and she stayed! Angela has worked as a midwife and RN over the years and we welcome her return. She is a big dog person, particularly golden retrievers.

Kathryn joined TSAJ in mid 2021. She has worked as a Registered Nurse in several general practices in Sydney, on the Central Coast and most recently in Civic.
