A statement from Pennygate Surgery extended Dr Nathu’s thanks to “all the patients and friends who have presented her with gifts, cards, flowers, personal messages and lots of hugs and words of support”.

It continued: “Finally her heartfelt thank you to all, including her staff, past and especially the current staff for their amazing support to help achieve a personal goal and a fulfilling career.
