Practice and Team Context
We are a training practice and look after a list of 8,850 patients over two sites, dispensing to 65% of them. The 3 partners are supported by a growing multidisciplinary team comprising 4 salaried GPs, 1 nurse practitioner, 2 practice nurses, a HCA and a phlebotomist. In addition, we have our GP trainees. Through our North Kerrier Primary Care Network, we have a physician associate, a share of three mental health practitioners, a first contact physiotherapist, care home paramedic and a share of a pharmacist and three pharmacy technicians. We are all a friendly and supportive bunch.
The additional benefits of working here include normally weekdays work, unless we have specialist vaccination clinics on Saturdays (voluntary involvement). We offer free parking, uniform and are part of the Cycle to Work Scheme.
