Many GPs enter the profession wanting to spend real time with patients, only to find themselves pushed from one appointment to the next. In our private patient health screening clinics, you'll have the space to practise differently – without the rush, with access to clear referral pathways, and with patients who come looking for proactive, personalised guidance.
As the UK's largest employer of private GPs specialising in corporate healthcare, we can offer you the chance to focus on clinical conversations that feel meaningful again.
As a General Practitioner (GP) / Advanced Health Screening Doctor at HCA you’ll use your time to dig deeper into lifestyle, prevention and long‑term health, carrying out detailed health assessments and more routine GP appointments. Many patients come through corporate contracts, so you’ll be supporting people who are motivated to understand their health and ready to make changes that fit demanding working lives. With access to advanced diagnostics and respected specialists across HCA UK, you can recommend plans that feel realistic and backed by a pathway you trust, rather than reacting to symptoms in isolation.
What You’ll Do
- Deliver pre‑booked health screening appointments which start at 30 minutes for a basic male screening, 45 minutes for a basic female screening and can go up to a couple of hours.
- Deliver personalised GP telemed consultations.
- Carry out procedures such as blood draws, vaccinations, smear tests and ECGs.
- Use diagnostics and rapid pathways to support timely decisions.
- Provide tailored guidance on lifestyle, risk and long‑term wellbeing.
- Refer patients to specialists and therapies when clinically appropriate.
What Else You Can Expect
- Community: You’ll be part of a network of over 140 private GPs, with access to our GP Academy to help you settle into private practice and regular peer sessions where clinical discussions are encouraged, not rushed.
- Recognition: Your contribution won’t be measured by patient volume; instead, your impact is recognised through patient outcomes, referral quality, collaborative working and the time you invest in preventative care.
- Compassion: Your schedule is built to protect your work‑life balance, with no home visits, no weekends and no out‑of‑hours work, giving you time to practise medicine that feels rewarding without sacrificing your own wellbeing.
- Primary Care division: Our division offers consultations, chronic disease management, preventative screenings and vaccinations, all supported by advanced diagnostics and access to specialist pathways.
- Corporate healthcare partnerships: We also deliver occupational health assessments, employee screenings and wellbeing programmes for major employers, supporting long‑term health in the workplace.
