Salaried GPGP Practice
We are a large, well-established practice with a patient list of almost 24,500 patients, serving a diverse population across north Portsmouth. As a practice, we aim to provide safe, modern, patient-centred care whilst creating a working environment where clinicians feel supported, valued and able to enjoy their work.
If you are looking for a practice where teamwork genuinely matters, where clinical development is encouraged, and where work-life balance is more than just a phrase in a job advert, we would love to hear from you.
Why Join The Drayton Surgery?
You will be joining a highly experienced and supportive multidisciplinary team comprising:
- 5 GP Partners
- 8 Salaried GPs
- 12 Advanced Nurse Practitioners
- 7 Practice Nurses
- 4 Healthcare Support Workers
- 3 Phlebotomists
Alongside this, we benefit from a wide range of additional roles through our PCN including Clinical Pharmacists, Pharmacy Technicians, First Contact Physiotherapists, Social Prescribers, Mental Health Facilitators, Cancer Care Coordinators and Care Coordinators.
We believe that general practice works best when clinicians are supported by strong teams, allowing everyone to work at the top of their licence and focus on delivering excellent patient care.
Main duties of the job
As a Salaried GP, you will provide a mixture of:
- Face-to-face consultations
- Telephone consultations
- eConsult reviews
There is a fair and equitable share of both:
- Morning triage clinics
- Afternoon duty clinics
These clinics are always worked alongside a clinical colleague, helping to share workload and provide peer support.
You will have your own patient list, with list sizes set proportionately lower than those of GP Partners based on the number of sessions worked. Patients remain free to see any GP within the practice.
Overview of your organisationOne of the benefits of working at The Drayton Surgery is its accessibility. Located just minutes from the M27, A27 and A3(M), the practice is an easy commute from Portsmouth, Southampton, Winchester, Petersfield and Chichester. Strong local bus services and nearby rail links provide additional flexibility for those travelling by public transport.
We operate across two sites:
- The Drayton Surgery, Havant Road, Drayton
- Highclere Medical Centre, Cosham
Supporting our clinical teams is a substantial and highly experienced administrative workforce including operations, patient services, prescribing, secretarial, reception, QoF and patient experience teams.
A Practice That Invests in Its People
We are committed to career development and actively support clinicians in pursuing areas of special interest. Within our current team, we have GPs with specialist interests including:
- Minor Surgery
- Joint Injections
- Women’s Health
- Palliative and End of Life Care
All new salaried GPs are supported by a dedicated GP Partner Mentor, providing guidance, advice and support throughout their time with us.
General practice can be challenging, which is why we place significant importance on looking after each other. We make time to connect as a team, whether that is grabbing a coffee together each morning, sharing ideas and experiences, or through social events
