About us

The Practice is a medium size team which works together to deliver high quality, accessible care within a supportive, friendly learning environment. There are currently four GP Partners and one salaried GP. The GPs hold personal patient lists and some work part-time in a job share team with other Partners. The doctors meet daily for a coffee, a chat, discuss cases, and have a laugh and the occasional grumble. The teaching and training ethos is integral to the Practice. We host Year 5 medical students from Hull York Medical School and we have the capacity to take up to 2 GP Registrars. All doctors are involved with teaching to some extent and the Practice encourages all staff to train and develop.

The Practice is proud of its can do attitude and seeks to be at the forefront of innovation.

The Practice was rated Good at the last CQC inspection. QOF (Quality and Outcomes Framework) points have remained high and steady since introduction in 2004.

Both the staff and doctors have a good work/life balance. We have a keen focus on staff wellbeing, arranging social events and wellbeing days. The Practice is very caring and values their staff, who are similarly committed to providing good quality care. The Practice is a very comfortable place to work, with a good team of friendly staff. There is a relaxed atmosphere, and the environment is very pleasant to work in.
