Salaried GP

Background – 
You will be joining a popular and well thought of practice in an idyllic small-town setting on the edge of the Mendip Hills.

The practice has a supportive population and the team are led by a dynamic and well-known Partnership, frequently at the forefront of change and innovation.
Leading from the front, the Partners and management team have addressed the increasing challenges facing General Practice with a reduced workload, protected admin session, 15 minute appointments and greater collaboration with their local colleagues in secondary and community care.
The practice offers the ideal mix of traditional, community values as well as dynamism and forward thinking attitudes. For what it’s worth, there is also an incredible view of the local countryside from the consulting rooms!

I have placed an experienced Salaried GP with this practice before receiving excellent feedback since and an extract from her testimonial, eighteen months on, is below:
‘I swore that I would never take up a salaried position lightly due to past experience, but I investigated it further and to my surprise this was a great practice with genuine ability to adapt to the individual doctor, much reduced patients per session and specific admin time worked in. I love the morning huddle which brings together all staff to update everyone on the latest and chat about actions for the day. I have been there over a year now and they have taken on board many of my suggestions and I even have a say in how my duty day runs.’
