Lisa Cullen

I am currently an Outreach Sexual Health Practitioner at Locala Health & Wellbeing. I am enthusiastic, honest, non-judgemental and a positive practitioner with excellent communication skills.

An Associate

Member of the Faculty (CoRSH) and have an up-to-date LOC: Sub Dermal Implants. I believe that the knowledge, skills and experience I have developed throughout my university education, variety of roles, responsibilities, and duties throughout my career, will enable me to provide excellent inclusive, person centred care and support to patients within your service. I subscribe to the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).

I consider myself to be a highly motivated individual & determined to succeed in all areas of my work. I have the confidence to put forward ideas, as well as the ability to question, challenge and influence service delivery. My greatest strengths are my intuitive nature and most importantly positive attitude towards sexual health.

I am drawn to a career where compassion and professionalism come together to improve the health and wellbeing of others.
