Situated in the north of Leamington Spa, Clarendon Lodge Medical Practice has a long tradition of serving the local community. In addition to providing the best possible care to our patients, the practice has a strong focus on education. We train new doctors at both undergraduate and post‑graduate level.

Our patients play a key part in this education process by giving their consent to allow the undergraduate medical students to have a real experience in general practice and by establishing good relationships with our GP Registrar post graduate doctors.

Our educational commitment is something that the whole team is extremely proud of. This commitment is borne out by the fact that two of our current partners undertook part of their training with the practice.

Based in Leamington Spa this role would involve delivering core general medical services to patients at Clarendon Lodge.

The post-holder will manage a caseload and deal with a wide range of health needs in a primary care setting, ensuring the highest standards of care for all registered and temporary patients. Responsibilities will reflect requirements of the NHS GP Contracts, and as such may be subject to change as services adapt.
