We aim to be an enthusiastic, well-organised practice providing good quality care at least most of the time! This requires commitment and we hope you can join with us in that philosophy. Work in general practice can be challenging expect it to be difficult at times. You will be supported by your mentor and the practice but seeing patients in general practice involves you having to make some decisions without the benefit of immediate advice from seniors. Coping with uncertainty and managing risk are important skills to learn. Regarding workload - you will never be asked to do more than any partner and usually it will be considerably less. The working day in general practice can seem long. You will have surgeries at am and pm typically. You are required to see a set number of patients in each of your daily rotas. Full detail will be discussed and agreed. There will be time between surgeries for visits, lunch ,meetings and administration. It may seem also that there is spare time we ask that you make good use of this.
