Job summary
The Peninsula Practice are looking for a GP who enjoys being part of a collaborative practice team and who is committed to delivering high-quality general practice. This is an exciting position offered on a fixed term contract working up to 8 sessions per week. We are very happy to be flexible in how these sessions are filled and would welcome applications from GPs looking for anything from 4 to 8 sessions per week. The post could therefore suit one GP looking for an 8-session working week, or potentially two GPs wishing to work approximately 4 sessions each. Whether you are an experienced GP, looking for a change of environment, returning to practice, or looking for a fixed-term opportunity that offers some flexibility around your existing commitments, we would be very happy to hear from you.

Main duties of the job

• Face-to-face and telephone consultations
• Management of acute and chronic conditions
• Prescribing and medication reviews
• Referrals and associated clinical correspondence
• Home visits where appropriate
• Participation in the wider clinical responsibilities of the practice
• Working collaboratively with our nursing, dispensary, administrative and PCN teams

We appreciate that GPs increasingly value flexibility and a sustainable work-life balance, so we are very happy to have a conversation about how the available sessions could work for the right candidate(s).
