Retirement of Dr Carol Mooney:

Carol wishes to announce that she will be retiring at the end of the year. Needless to say, she will be irreplaceable and greatly missed by us all, but she is happy to be free to visit her family.

All patients can continue to attend Drs Aogán Rooney, Pamela Healy, Kelly Dunlop and Colm Kennelly, and all medical cards in Carol's name will be automatically transferred to Aogán to allow patients to attend the practice as before.
