Job summary

City Walls Medical Centre is seeking a newly qualified General Practitioner (GP) to join our team on a fixed-term salaried contract until 30th September 2025. This role is funded through the Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme (ARRS) and is available to all GPs who have qualified within the last two years.

Application Process: We encourage early applications as we reserve the right to close the application process early. For more information about this role, please contact us.
