About us
Join us in Thetford, a uniquely historic and beautiful market town nestled in forest and countryside. Once the 6th largest settlement in England (Domesday Book), Thetford is the birthplace of Thomas Paine, a key figure in the American Revolution and modern human rights. We're also home to Britain's first black mayor, a Bahamian GP, and legend has it Queen Boudicca held court on the very site of our current surgery. Some say this is where modern civilisation began and we wont argue.
Today, Thetford faces greater deprivation than some neighbouring areas, but we believe this creates richer, more meaningful clinical work, where GPs can truly make a difference.Why join us?
