Salaried GP | Central SomersetBackgroundTwenty-four patient contacts a day, a front-loaded morning and protected admin time built into every afternoon. This practice has spent a decade streamlining how it works so GPs can focus on patients, and the GPs we have placed here speak highly of it. Whether you are newly qualified or well established, the team values the right fit far more than years of experience.
LocationThe practice is based in a market town in Central Somerset, with the Somerset Levels and the Mendip Hills on the doorstep. Wells is around 15 minutes away, Bridgwater around 30 minutes and Yeovil around 35 minutes, with Bath and Bristol both roughly an hour's drive. A nearby mainline station offers direct trains to London.
