Job summary

Salaried GP

  • Up to £11.6k per session
  • 6 sessions per week: Mon, Tues, Thurs

With patient care at the forefront of all that we do, we have recently moved to a triage system to improve patient access. No more crazy 8am rush or telephone lottery for patients, instead we review patients on a needs basis, providing them with the right care, when they need it. For GPs, this refocuses your work on those patients that genuinely need a GP.

Main duties of the job

The role will involve a variety of face-to-face and telephone appointments and will include appointments to complete ward rounds and home visits.

You will work among a team of like-minded GPs, nurses and HCAs and will be supported by a GP Clinical Lead.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a company that values their people and patients over process, and we would love to hear from you!

About us

At South Wigston Health Centre we continue to transform and revolutionise the way that we deliver Primary Care services with our patient-first approach.

We have an extensive multi-disciplinary team who are keen to innovate and utilise their varied skillset and we are seeking talented individuals like you to become a part of it!
