An opportunity has arisen to become part of our fantastic team of GPs on a fixed term basis. We are seeking applications from qualified GPs with interest in working within a developing, forward-thinking Practice.
Based in Mid Ross in the Scottish Highlands, Alness and Invergordon Medical Group has an overall population of 13,500 patients and is situated within easy commuting distance of the city of Inverness. The Practice is based within modern premises on the Invergordon County Community Hospital site and in the neighbouring town of Alness. Located on the northern shores of the Cromarty Firth, this is an area that has recently been selected to host one of Scotland’s first green freeports. This is an exciting time for the local area with the winning bid helping to support growth and regeneration.
A typical day includes 10 to 12 X 15 minute appointments per session.

A normal working week would have a requirement for regular on site working, though some hybrid working may be considered.
Within the team we have a range of special interests including palliative care, lifestyle medicine, medical technology and medical education. We have been working closely with Medical Education Colleagues to develop and embed education and training within the practice; and have recently appointed an Education Lead from within the GP team to develop this further.
The Practice has a fantastic wider team including Advanced Nurse Practitioners, Practice Nursing and Health Care Assistants; alongside the extended multidisciplinary team including Pharmacotherapy, First
