Job summary
Ledbury Health Partnership are offering an opportunity to join our friendly, forward thinking and supportive team. We are seeking an enthusiastic and innovative salaried GP who shares our ambition, values and commitment to patient centred care.
We are offering a competitive salary to a GP available to work 4 sessions per week on Mondays and Thursdays.
These days are to complete our cover requirements based on the current rota.
We use EMIS Web, Docman 10 and AccuRx; and we offer telephone and face to face consultations. We are now using Klinik for total triage, so experience of triage would be helpful, but not essential.
Starting date is negotiable, but ideally the successful applicant would be available by May 2026 latest.
Closing date for applications: 15th March 2026.
Main duties of the job
You will have a well managed workload with predictable working hours and a well-resourced Duty rota. Importantly, there is a daily coffee meeting for all GPs and the duty clinical team.
We have an administrative team to support clinical workload; they screen all incoming documents and code and filter them before they are passed on to GPs.
A Biomedical Scientist filters the bulk of lab results, and the AI tool; GP Automate, helps with this process too.
About us
We have a practice population of 13,700 and growing, and we cover the town of Ledbury itself plus the surrounding villages and hamlets. We are consistently high QOF achievers, we have a Good CQC rating and we are a training practice, so we have a combination of FY2s and trainees at different times.
We are a 5 Partner GP Team supported by multidisciplinary clinical team of Salaried GPs, Nurses, HCAs, Paramedic, ANP, Pharmacists and Pharmacy Technician, a Biomedical Scientist, a First Contact Practitioner and Counsellors.
Our values are: peer support, high quality patient centred care, innovation, continuous service improvement, compassion and good humour
As part of the East Herefordshire PCN we work collaboratively with neighbouring Practices.
The Practice is situated in the market town of Ledbury at the foot of the Malvern Hills, surrounded by idyllic countryside. There are excellent transport links (train station, bus services, M50 providing direct link to M5 for travel from Birmingham or Bristol). There are excellent schools within the area and a wide variety of housing options available.
