GP | per session | patients | BMA

Background

This role sits within one of the most tightly run and genuinely supportive working environments GPs will find in the Swindon area. Duty is capped at half day sessions, and heavy investment in workflow systems keeps the daily letter burden down to just 10 to 12 items per GP. If clinical work done properly, in a setting that actually backs its GPs, matters most to you, this one is worth a closer look.
