Tudor Surgery

GP Partner/Salaried GP

This job is now closed

Job summary

Due to a vacancy and the forthcoming retirement of a Partner in 18 months, we seek two GP Partners for 4-6 sessions each.The posts would suit a GP seeking to have influence over his/ her day-to-day and longer-term working environment. The outgoing Partner has worked in Nantwich for 20 years and is happy to share his acquired knowledge prior to departure. The successful applicants will work independently and (even if wishing to start as Salaried) will have the opportunity to influence the future direction of the Practice.

We can introduce you to daytime portfolio opportunities involving Intermediate Care, Urgent Care and GP Frailty-based roles. There are also options to further increase earnings by working extended hours (either within the Practice or via local Hubs).

Clinical administration is kept manageable by the involvement of the whole Practice team. The Practice Nurses action chronic disease and normal investigation results, administrative staff scan and code hospital correspondence and add medication prior to review by a clinician for issuing, and the Non-medical Prescribing Pharmacists sort most of the repeat prescriptions. We use EMISweb for medical record-keeping and PATCHS for online consultation requests.
