Job summary

Salaried GP/Locum required for established practice in West Swindon.

Initially for 6 months with a view to extension to a permanent position.

Alternatively, for the right candidate, this could be a permanent position immediately with a linked fellowship for another two sessions per week.

4 Sessions - with No OOH

Main duties of the job

The work is mostly clinical without much of the normal paperwork that a GP is normally expected to do. We have systems in place to keep this to a minimum ensuring that you are primarily focused on the care of the patients that you see. For example, the vast majority letters are dealt with by either the admin team, pharmacist or managing GP. This together with 15-minute routine appointments mean the workload is manageable and you are able to provide good quality care whilst maintaining your own health and wellbeing.
