Tanyard Muirkirk Medical Group (TMMG) has been serving local communities for many years and remains committed to delivering high-quality general medical services to over 13,500 patients. We operate across two branches, based in Cumnock and Muirkirk, supporting patients across the surrounding areas.
We are currently seeking an enthusiastic locum GP for 4 sessions to help increase appointment availability over the coming months from October to March with potential for longer and with a view to a permanent position. We have a full complement of friendly, hardworking staff, including 7 GPs, 4 ANPs, 1 long-term locum GP, 3 Practice/Triage Nurses, supported by an experienced management team and a dedicated administration team.
In addition, we benefit from a strong multidisciplinary team, including District Nurses, Health Visitors, CTAC, MSK Physiotherapists, Mental Health Practitioners, Pharmacotherapy support, and a Community Connector. The role will involve routine clinical duties, including managing acute presentations, repeat prescribing, and processing Docman workflow, as well as working across our branch surgeries on a rota basis.
We operate using EMIS and Docman systems. Our well-established pharmacy and administrative teams provide strong support to clinicians, helping to reduce workload pressures and eliminate the need for late working hours. We have a dedicated on-call ANP each day, meaning you will very rarely be required to undertake home visits.
The practice also supports medical students at various stages of their training by offering placement opportunities. In addition, it provides administrative apprenticeship opportunities, further demonstrating our commitment to supporting and developing members of the local community.
You will be invited to attend regular practice team meetings, as well as palliative care meetings held in collaboration with our local palliative care nurse and District Nursing team.
