Town: Northampton, Milton Keynes

Part Time: 5 sessions / 2.5 days / 20 hours per week

Permanent: Salaried

Shift times: Only open Monday to Friday - office hours

Salary: £10,400 per session + exceptional benefits

We're looking for a talented GP to join us looking after our corporate patients in Northampton and Milton Keynes. We are the UK's largest private patient GP employer and this is a really exciting opportunity to work with us in the Midlands.

The majority of the sessions would be carrying out health screenings in Northampton, with 2 days per month in Milton Keynes. One session per week would be remote GP Telemedicine work from home, and there is scope for this to be on a Saturday or Sunday if preferred.

The majority of our patients come through to us from our corporate clients; professionals who are prioritising their health and who value a comprehensive, personalised approach. If you have a passion for "prevention rather than cure" and lifestyle medicine, this could be the role for you!

As a General Practitioner / Health Screener at HCA UK Primary Care, you'll provide Comprehensive primary care for an adult population who actively invest in their health; engaging with patients, exploring their medical history, addressing concerns and performing examinations. You'll also arrange investigations, provide guidance, prescribe, discuss medical options, treatments, and deliver expert advice.

With our advanced health screenings, you will have time to have those important lifestyle and coaching conversations and use extended appointment times to explore patients’ goals, support behaviour change, and develop actionable health plans.

You will be expected to perform procedures such as taking bloods, smear tests and ECG's.

At HCA UK, you’ll have the time to care, the tools to succeed, and the flexibility to enjoy life outside of work with structured pre-booked appointments in office hours. Our GP appointments are 15 minutes and our health screens range from 30 minute up to 2 hours depending on the type of screening being undertaken.

What you'll bring

• GMC registered

• Strong communication and IT skills.

• A proactive, patient-first approach with a genuine interest in preventative and lifestyle medicine coaching.

• Training provided on 'Advanced' Health Screening.

• Private Patient experience, desirable, but not essential.
