SLATEFORD MEDICAL PRACTICE – SALARIED GP – 6 SESSIONS IN A SUPPORTIVE, FRIENDLY PRACTICE
We are a city based GP Practice in Edinburgh, seeking to employ a 6 session salaried GP, with a planned start date of the beginning of December 2026. The successful candidate is preferably available to cover the sessions over Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, although there may be the opportunity for flexibility.
We offer our patients either telephone or face to face appointments. The GPs have 25 booked appointments per day which are primarily booked on the day. Duty Doctor are allocated fairly , typically one session per week.
We are fortunate to have our Advanced Nurse Practitioner carry out the vast majority of our house-calls.
We have a patient population of just over 10,500 patients and we use Vision as our clinical system. The practice promotes a supportive, collaborative approach to work. We have daily huddles to discuss interesting and challenging cases.
We currently have a clinical team of 4 GP Partners, 7 salaried doctors, 1 Advanced Nurse Practitioner, 2 Practice Nurses, 3 HCA’s, a Practice Mental Health Nurse, 2 Practice pharmacists and 1 Senior Pharmacy technician. Our Admin team consists of a Practice Manager and Business Manager, 6 reception/admin assistants, 3 data administrators and 2 secretaries. The GP Practice is part of purpose built premises which also has in house community services such as District Nursing, Health Visitors, School Nurses and Midwives.
We are currently hosting both 1st and 4th year medical students.
We are a sociable team. We are fortunate to have an outside seating area where we can all get together for coffee and lunch, if the weather allows.
