Dynamic GP — Maternity Cover at a Training Practice

Salaried GP (maternity cover) Cuckfield Medical Practice Haywards Heath, United Kingdom

We are looking for a GP to join our well established, vibrant and forward thinking practice in the heart of Mid Sussex on a fixed term basis to cover maternity leave. Candidates will be focused on providing great patient care whilst being dynamic and adaptable to meet the changes we will see in general practice over the coming years.

We are a training practice led by a strong partnership and management team with salaried GPs and a range of other clinical staff to support us in our roles. We pride ourselves in providing a supportive working environment for all and meet regularly with the MDT to ensure a holistic approach to our care and opportunities for ongoing learning for all staff.

Cuckfield and The Vale Practice looks after 13,000 patients and is a dual site surgery based in Cuckfield and Haywards Heath. We are an active member of the flourishing Haywards Heath Villages PCN.
