As a General Practitioner at NHS Lanarkshire you will be responsible for patients of all ages and genders. You may have a specialism but, in this role, you will diagnose and treat a whole range of common diseases, injuries, and conditions. You will carry out tests and be able to interpret test results, offer preventative care, and make recommendations to patients that encourage a healthy lifestyle and well being best practice. Dealing with both acute and long-term issues you will also make referrals to hospital consultants or other medical specialists as required.

Normally based within a GP surgery or clinic setting you will typically be the first point of contact for the patients within your practice. You will regularly be required to go out into the community to visit members of the public who are unable to travel to a surgery.

  • Have the ability and knowledge to assess patients and provide accurate diagnoses
  • Deliver bespoke, effective treatment plans
  • Forge excellent relationships with team members (admin staff, support staff and medical colleagues)
  • Communicate clearly and effectively with colleagues and patients
  • Complete all aspects of administration associated with your role
