Working across both our Fressingfield and Stradbroke surgeries, this position is ideally offered for 6-8 sessions per week, (8 sessions is our FTE), however we are happy to negotiate based on individual circumstances.
We are committed to supporting our staff's professional journey, so we welcome applications from all levels of experienced practitioners, including newly qualified GPs, so please do apply or contact us if you would like to discuss further.
Main duties of the job
