About Us
The Independent Nurse
Hello!
My name is Lisa, and I am the founder of The Independent Nurse.
A little bit about me...
With 12 year’s experience in the NHS both in hospitals and the community and then as a Clinical Practice Facilitator, nursing has always been a vocation of mine.
During my time working for the NHS, I developed a passion for providing the very highest standard of nursing with a focus on patient centered experience and evidence-based care.
I have used my experience in quality and improvement, alongside my passion for best practice, to create The Independent Nurse – private nursing care across Bristol providing a safe, holistic, and positive experience for all our patients.
At The Independent Nurse we provide high quality nursing care for patients of any age in the the heart of Bristol. Whether you are needing support for yourself or a loved one, don’t let NHS waiting times delay you in getting the health care and support that you need. We are regulated by the Care Quality Commission to meet the highest standards of Governance, so you know you are in safe hands.
If you have any questions, please get in touch here.

Test Centre for Diagnosing and Treating Low Testosterone
Placement Provider for the University of the West of England
Ted’s Health was launched to help men better understand and support their health - starting with diagnosing and treating low testosterone.
Testosterone is one of the most important aspects of men’s health. But 1 in 4 men over 30 have low testosterone, which can cause both mental and physical changes that impact your sexual health, strength, mood, sleep and more. Thankfully, there are effective, evidence-based treatments available to help.
To get started we’ll send you a simple, at-home blood test. Once we’ve got your results, you’ll have a private, video consultation with one of our UK registered doctors, who will discuss your test results and create a personalised treatment plan that will work best for you.
