About us
Ashfields Primary Care Centre is a growing 26,000+ patient
practice in the semi-rural market town of Sandbach, Cheshire, located close to
the M6 motorway.
As a practice we have high patient satisfaction scores, and a
good CQC report with outstanding features. We have a supportive clinical team
that includes ANPs, Nurses, HCAs, Pharmacists and Social Prescribers. The
practice is also supported by first contact physiotherapists, a team of Care Coordinator's, along with a comprehensive administration team.
Committed to training Undergraduates and Registrars, a history

develop through to partnership.

close links with care networks across the patch.
We offer a competitive salary, 6 weeks annual leave plus pro
rata bank holidays, regular educational sessions held for all clinicians, 1
