New GP for Dunkineely
The Health Service Executive (HSE) has announced that Doctor Janinda Muhandiramge has been formally appointed as GP in the Dunkineely area. Doctor Muhandiramge's full-time post will will come into effect from Monday, January 30.
The Dunkineely Health Centre had been without a GP since mid-November when Dr Charles McManus left to take up a role in a Glenties practice. Patients were advised, at that time, that they would be cared for in the Glenties practice until a replacement was found.
The recruitment process got underway in December with a spokesperson for the HSE saying that GP recruitment was proving extremely difficult across the country.
