An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our outstanding rural dispensing practice in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales. We are looking to recruit a dedicated and enthusiastic GP to work two sessions per week (Fridays preferred), with additional flexibility to provide holiday cover for the GP partner.

The role is both rewarding and varied, ideal for a confident GP who thrives in an autonomous environment and values making a tangible impact within a rural population.
