Information:

This job is now closed

Job summary

An exciting opportunity has arisen for one or more GPs to join our team to cover up to 7 clinical sessions per week in a friendly, dynamic, and forward-thinking, single-site surgery in Harrogate. We have an outstanding clinical and nursing team, situated in modern, purpose-built premises in the heart of this historic Spa town.

East Parade Surgery is a practice which has always been progressive and keen to embrace change whilst maintaining the traditional values of patient centred general practice. One of our partners is the Clinical Director of the Mowbray Square PCN, which places us in an excellent position to lead on new ways of working and maximise the benefits of close relationships with our colleagues in the allied health professions. We have a great team ethos in our workforce, with strong staff retention. We are friendly and supportive with a focus on staff wellbeing and for many years have continued the tradition of our valuable daily GP coffee meeting.

The responsibilities will include a pro-rata share of Duty Doctor sessions each week, support the Extended hours sessions and a share of the small number of home visits the practice does.

Routine clinics compromise of a mix of telephone and 15-minute face-to-face consultation appointments, including 25% of routine surgery time being protected for clinical admin and a defined number of appointments per routine session. A job plan is available on request.
