GP Partner

Background –

An outstanding opportunity to join a dynamic GP Training practice which is high dispensing, excellently led and offers a very attractive working pattern as well as attractive financial prosperity.

We have recently three Salaried GPs for the practice, taking them up to a full complement of GPs, with outstanding feedback in the process. With two planned retirements over the next 12 months however, there is now a need to ensure succession in the Partnership and the practice is looking to recruit at least one Partner, if not two, with 6-8 sessions available in each case.

Drawings – high-earning, circa £20,000 – £25,000 per session

Location – north of Plymouth, easily commutable from Plymouth itself as well as the likes of Launceston and Tavistock (one of the GPs we placed commutes from Ivybridge)
