Salaried GP (GP Reimbursement Scheme Funded)GP Practice
About the Role
Fressingfield Medical Centre is pleased to offer an exciting opportunity for a Salaried GP to join our thriving practice in rural north Suffolk. Working across our Fressingfield and Stradbroke surgeries, this position is offered for 2 sessions per week, ideally both worked on a Monday, within our same-day urgent access service.
This is a new post, funded through the practice-level GP Reimbursement Scheme, created specifically to strengthen our capacity for patients requiring same-day assessment and treatment. If you enjoy managing acute and undifferentiated presentations and making confident clinical decisions, this role has been designed around exactly that.
The successful candidate will work as an autonomous practitioner, responsible for delivering high-quality medical services and excellent clinical care to patients of the practice. The post holder will adhere to GMC standards of good medical practice and work collaboratively within our established multidisciplinary team.
The role will involve delivering a dedicated same-day urgent care list, comprising a mixture of face-to-face and telephone consultations as clinically appropriate. Sessions may also involve supporting our duty clinician system, or covering duty sessions during periods of annual leave and other service pressures.
With regard to our service model, the majority of home visits are undertaken by our PCN Paramedic team, allowing GPs to focus on clinical care within the practice. Most appointment requests are initially processed by our reception team via telephone. Same-day appointments are initially telephone consultations, with clinicians arranging face-to-face appointments where clinically appropriate. We also provide a mixture of planned face-to-face and telephone appointments throughout the day.
As a practice, we pride ourselves on staying true to the values of family medicine whilst providing a supportive and inclusive working environment.
Whilst the role is expected to be practice-based, we are happy to discuss individual circumstances and flexible working requests with the successful candidate.
