We are looking for a 6-7 session GP depending on the candidate and the needs of the PCN.

We are a well- established PCN team who are passionate about developing and delivering excellent quality local services to meet the needs of our patients. Our practices are keen to work with our team of Clinical Pharmacists, Pharmacy Technicians, Paramedic Practitioners, First Contact Physiotherapists, Care Coordinators, Mental health Practitioners and Mental Health Navigators.

This post is seen as a perfect opportunity to those new to starting life as a GP. It includes a dedicated mentor along with a reduced and controlled workload to allow the successful candidate time and support to develop as a fully qualified GP.
