Flexible Salaried GP position in GHAC and Partners in Health
We are looking for clinicians to join our practices in Gloucester.
This is an opportunity for GPs who enjoy working in a team environment to join our practices operating in Gloucester. We have sessions available across Gloucester Health Access Centre (in the Centre of Gloucester) and our Partners in Health Practice (near Gloucester Quays).
We offer highly flexible working that can be tailored to your needs and balanced with patient requirements. We guarantee finite patient contacts per day and overall, an excellent work-life balance.
We are owned and operated by GDOC, a not-for-profit organisation owned by all the GP practices in Gloucestershire. Being part of the GDOC family offers our GPs the best of both worlds: being part of a small Practice team providing continuity of care for patients, and the support and career opportunities of a larger organisation to draw upon when you want.
Closing Date: 23 September 2024
We reserve the right to close this vacancy early if we receive sufficient applications for this role.

We offer you:

- Flexible hours to accommodate a portfolio career, family responsibilities, and out of work interests.
- Options to combine general practice with other professional interests, both within GDOC and externally, including supporting specialisations, continued education and GP training.
- Friendly, supportive and expert practice teams who work alongside our GP taking care of routine clinical administrative tasks.

Job responsibilities
Both practices have a stable clinical staff structure in place but increasing patient population and demand means we are looking to augment the current GPs with additional salaried GP(s) covering 6 to 8 sessions.
