Locum GP

AB14 0RP

Locum GP 
We are also seeking a reliable locum GP to provide cover for recent unplanned sick leave. There is also immediate potential for this to evolve into some maternity cover role for those interested in longer-term work. We pride ourselves on being a well-organised, low-stress practice where locums are treated as valued colleagues. You will enjoy the same manageable workload and 15-minute appointments as our permanent staff.

We have a fantastic team consisting of 6 GPs, 2 ANPs, a NP, 2 FCPs and 2 pharmacists. We are also very well supported by our care
navigation team. If you are looking for a role that values a steady pace and a supportive environment, whether on a salaried or locum basis, we would love to hear from you. We’d be delighted to discuss things informally and in confidence with any GP at any stage of their career.

• 8000 patients
• We enjoy our duty sessions due to loads of appointments!
• 12 contacts morning and 10 afternoon allowing 15 min appointments
• Very well organised
• Workflow optimised = only a very few of your own Docman which are mainly FYI
• No chronic disease blood results
• Undergraduate teaching
• Other opportunities to develop interests
• Lovely work environment with sit-stand desks. We also avoid hot-desking.
• Fresh ground coffee on tap
• Pleasant outdoor lunch area
• Dedicated time each session for team coffee breaks (which actually happen) and for CPD
• Full social calendar with BBQs, movie nights, nights out etc
• Regular team meetings with time blocked
• Very supportive environment

Start date is flexible, this could be now but we are also prepared to wait for right candidate(s).
