Salaried GP

Job summary

There are plenty of advertisements for Salaried GP roles out there, but why choose us?

Due to an expanding list size, I am very pleased to be able to offer you the opportunity to join our team as a four - six session (we have flexibility in number of sessions) Salaried GP.

I am Dr Ben Mills, one of four partners at Mickleover Medical Centre, Derby. We are a c13200 patient practice in the Leafy suburbs of Derby, caring for a generally older population.

We're a well led team, guided by Everywhere Emma, our dynamo of a Practice Manager. An excellent admin team (who for example filter out normal results and routine letters, massively reducing routine filing for our clinicians) keep the back-room wheels turning. Our brilliant reception team are good mix of young charm and tougher, wiser old boots. They know the regulars and when to flag up a real emergency.

Withfive steady as rocks Salaried Doctors, 2 top notch Nurse Practitioners, and two lovely ('you hold em and while I jab em') Practice Nurses (obviously not all they do!) make up the rest of the clinical team with a HCA, while two PCN pharmacists, a First Contact Physio and Care coordinator answer the questions we cant. And when not at work we all transmogrify into variably cyclists, water-skiers, bakers, plant botherers, kickboxers, campanologists, potters, more bakers (a lot of baking goes on), and if you dont own a dog, we'll lend you one.

Please note we are not a Tier 2 employer.

Main duties of the job

But can you fill these boots? Charming and chirpy. Tenacious but not pugnacious. Empathic but not a push over. Skin as thick as an elephants elbow. Furiously busy, leaning in not leaning back - but with a well-developed off switch. A completer not just a starter. A Team player, more often a team leader. Still thrilled and fulfilled by the Good Things we can do in General Practice?

Our interests also lie outside the practice as part of an 10 practice, c100k patient PCN which provides for example a visiting service and first contact physio, more ARRS roles and our pharmacists. We've close links to the PCN and have opportunity to influence and be a part of future direction. Becoming a training practice is one of our new building goals, when we have the space.

Living here? Great local schools both state and private, mix of independent retailers and modern mall in Derby town centre, along with Nottingham down the road, with Sheffield and Birmingham an hour away with all their shopping and entertainment offers. But we think the up hills and down dales of the Derbyshire countryside is the big attraction, the bucolic battery recharger, so dust off your hiking boots. The only thing we cant give you is the seaside and traffic jams - but thats what six weeks holiday is for and with an extra study week thrown in - should refresh the mind.

Being a GP is tough. Being part of a friendly, efficient team really helps.

No Agencies please. WE are not a Tier 2 Employer

About us

We won't insult you by assuming you do not know the role of a GP in a busy Practice.

Suffice to say, on the days you're in, there is the usual workload of patients and admin. We're looking for 4-6 sessions covered, Monday, Thursday and Friday - due to room space. We operate as part of the PCN, so we will be performing Tuesday/Thursday evenings on a rota basis and Saturday Morning. Everyone takes a share of the duty doctor (Split into am and pm sessions), which does not have any pre booked appointments. The majority of home visits are done by our home visiting service, however, we do ensure that our palliative patients get the support they need and the duty doctor will typically be the one doing the home visits, along with any care home issues, DN enquiries and for the staff in the practice, the go to person for clinical decisions.

As described, a mix of characters! But all hardworking and supportive of each other.

If you have an interest in Female Health and are certificated for Coil/LARC enhanced clinics, this is an advantage.

Talk to Emma if you are more than just a bit interested or want an informal chat. Send your CV to emma.wall5@nhs.net or call 01332513283. Closing date 14.6.25; we reserve the right to close applications earlier. No Agencies please.
