Our GPs provide overarching responsibility for patient care and handle most serious, acute and complex issues.
Dr Matt Leigh (m)
MB ChB Bristol 1997 DRCOG MRCGP MRCP (UK)I have been a GP at Lander Practice since 2005. I enjoy all aspect of General Practice, including training Doctors and students for the future.
I particularly value involving patients in their healthcare decisions and would like to see more active patient involvement across healthcare in general.
Outside medicine I enjoy swimming competitively for Cornwall, running the Cornish footpaths with my black retriever, surfing on the north coast and playing Abba songs on the piano. I have an amazing wife and six fantastic children.

MB ChB (2006, Cardiff) nMRCGP 2011I was lucky enough to grow up in Cornwall and went to Truro School. In 1999 I left the county behind to study Medicine in Cardiff, eventually returning to my home Town in 2008 to undertake GP training. I completed the GP training scheme in 2011 and after a period of time as a locum in various practices throughout Cornwall joined the Partnership here at the Lander Medical Practice in 2012 and I’ve not looked back since! I enjoy all aspects of providing Primary Care and have an interest in joint and soft tissue injections. Away from the Practice I enjoy spending time with my wife and our 5-yr old Son Oscar, who certainly keeps me busy! I am a keen motorsport enthusiast and also follow the trials and tribulations of Aston Villa, for better or worse…
I consider it an absolute honour and privilege to be a GP here in Truro and I really enjoy my job helping to look after you all.

MB ChB 2001 MRCGP DRCOG DFFPI am happily married with three children. I initially trained at Glasgow University, and since 2007 have worked as a GP in Cornwall.
I was born and raised in Truro and am proud to serve our population here.
When not at work I am usually found on the water in a small boat, on a bike or on the tennis court.
I work 4 days a week at Lander Practice with Thursdays at the Threemilestone branch surgery.

I am also skilled in joint and soft tissue injections, and the fitting of contraceptive implants.

Bsc MBBS 1992 MRCP MRCGPI was born the week hey Jude was released! My school projects were about space, then fish and then brains.
I trained in Neurology before moving across to General Practice, though I still work as a specialist on Wednesdays. I worked in Afghanistan for a year before moving to Cornwall for Medecins Sans Frontieres and may return to this work after retirement.
I have twin daughters who make sure that any rest at home is kept to a minimum.
Sports are still a relaxation, mainly in the form of squash, cricket and running.
Dr Jessica Cuff (f)
I have been lucky enough to spend a lot of my career at Lander- as a trainee, then as a salaried doctor, finally becoming a partner in 2019.
Sorry to all the Cornish folk but I was born in North Devon and although I married a Cornishman I have continued to make a cream tea the proper Devonshire way!
We live in Falmouth with our two kids and mini schnauzer Hamish, spending most of our time sailing and coast walking.
I am a GP trainer, have a DFSRH qualification in family planning and contraception but also have interests in HRT and the peri-menopause and dermatology.
Dr Philippa Jones (f)
I went to Leicester medical school and completed my GP training in Hertfordshire. My husband and I made the fantastic decision to move down to Cornwall, and I started at Lander, in 2019. We had twin boys in 2020 and they keep us very busy.
I have a special interest in womens health, paediatrics and palliative care. Mostly I really enjoy the variety and ongoing learning that general practice involves. I’m am a GP trainer.
In my spare time I love going to the beach with my boys and getting in the sea, and Lindy hop dancing when I can get a babysitter!

MBChB MRCGP I graduated from Bristol University in 2019. I met my Cornish wife at medical school so I knew I was coming down here for the long haul.
GP Training was fantastic in Cornwall and I feel very grateful for starting my career as a salaried GP here at Team Lander.
We have twins that keep our hands full and when not in work, I enjoy playing/watching a wide variety of sports.
As a GP, I have a broad interest in medicine but highly enjoy paediatrics and urgent care. I currently also do some work with the Out of Hours Service.
