Crondall New Surgery is a welcoming, high-performing dispensing practice in a beautiful village between Farnham and Fleet. We are looking for a salaried GP (4 sessions) holding a patient list, to join our friendly, supportive team.
This is a role designed with sustainability in mind: manageable workload, strong continuity of care, and a team that genuinely looks out for each other. We are forward-thinking and involved in research and teaching, while using technology intelligently to reduce admin and improve workflow.
You will have the freedom to develop your own interests, with protected support for learning and development. Most importantly, you will be joining a practice that values work/life balance and a positive working culture as much as high-quality patient care.
Main duties of the job This is a 4-session role across 2 days, with a balanced mix of telephone and face-to-face consultations and responsibility for your own patient list, supporting continuity of care.
You will take part in a shared duty doctor rota (one late day per week until 6:30pm) and contribute to extended access on a light, rota basis, including occasional Saturday mornings and seasonal clinics.
We aim to keep workloads realistic and well-supported. You will work closely with a multidisciplinary team, with paramedic support for home visits, allowing you to focus on clinical care.
There is strong encouragement to develop specialist interests, with access to funding and excellent local educational opportunities.
About us Crondall New Surgery is a part-dispensing GMS practice serving 6,000 patients, with a steadily growing list. Located in a well-connected village on the SurreyHampshire border, we combine the benefits of rural practice with easy access to larger towns.
We are part of Fleet PCN (HIOW ICB) and have a well-established multidisciplinary team including GPs, nurses, HCAs, dispensers, a mental health practitioner, first contact physiotherapist, and an excellent admin team.
We prioritise continuity, personal care, and safe, efficient working. Our systems (EMIS Web, Ardens, Accurx) support streamlined workflows and reduce unnecessary admin.
We are known for being friendly, supportive, and collaborative, with regular meetings, shared lunches, and a strong emphasis on clinician wellbeing. Flexible working and portfolio careers are actively supported.
