Would you like to be a GP at Headcorn Surgery?

With a rapidly expanding list, we want to recruit a new GP, initially as salaried but with potential for associateship or partnership in the future.

You would join our multidisciplinary team, consisting of 3 salaried GPs, Advanced Clinical Practitioner, Paramedic Practitioner, Nurse practitioner specialising in women’s’ health, two nurses, three HCAs and phlebotomist.

We are advertising now looking for a start date towards the end of the year.

We offer a very attractive package consisting of several key elements:

• Choice of number of sessions with opportunity to work remotely from home for some sessions.
• A lovely team environment with warm, skilled, and supportive admin and nursing team, and experienced and friendly GP / ACP colleagues.
• A competitive salary.
• Paid Indemnity cover with MDDUS.
• 7 weeks of annual leave and 1 week of study leave entitlement per year.
• 12 minute appointments, with shared admin duties, and time factored in for admin and telephone calls.
• A PCN paramedic to do most of our visits.
• No need to commit to any out of hours working.

We are offering up to 8 sessions with some flexibility as to which days. There will also be opportunity to do additional sessions to cover other GPs when they are on leave if you wish.

About us

Headcorn Surgery is a long established and well thought of semi-rural practice, with a growing list. The beautiful purpose-built premises are less than 10 years old and situated on the outskirts of the historical village of Headcorn just south of Maidstone.

The surrounding countryside ensures driving to work and out for occasional visits is an absolute joy.

With our sister practice Greensand Health Centre in Coxheath, we have recently formed our own small PCN [Athena PCN], and an extended Partnership of 3 GP and 2 Manager Partners.

We have a skilled and experienced administration team and achieve highly in QOF and incentive schemes. We also offer a range of enhanced services, including minor surgery, joint injection, VMO service to a nursing home, and insertion of coils and contraceptive implants. There will be ample opportunity for you to obtain supported experience should you wish to expand your skills in any of these areas. We have a pharmacy within our building, which is manned by an experienced pharmacist and skilled dispensing team.

If you are interested in joining us we would be delighted to talk or welcome you for an informal visit to look around.
