General Practitioner

Lancaster Medical Practice is seeking to recruit a Salaried General Practitioner to join our supportive and high-performing team.

Lancaster Medical Practice is a large, at-scale GP provider delivering General Medical Services to approximately 65,000 patients across Lancaster and the surrounding villages. Care is delivered through small, stable clinical micro-teams, enabling continuity of care and strong therapeutic relationships with patients.

Formed in April 2017 from several successful legacy practices, Lancaster Medical Practice has continued to evolve into the strong, high-performing organisation it is today, receiving an Outstanding rating from the Care Quality Commission in August 2018.

We are a modern general practice, not perfect but reflective, learning, and committed to continuous improvement for both patients and staff. We are realistic about the pressures facing general practice and work constructively with system partners to support safe, appropriately commissioned care, while continuing to learn, adapt, and improve.

For informal enquiries, please contact Peter Heald, Director of Service Development and Delivery, at peter.heald1@nhs.net, or Amy Williams, Managing Partner, at amy.williams59@nhs.net.

Interviews are provisionally planned for the week commencing 9th November 2026.

Main duties of the job

As a Salaried GP at Lancaster Medical Practice, you will:

• Provide a full range of NHS Primary Medical Services to patients registered with the Practice.
• Work within a micro-team model that supports continuity of care, shared responsibility, and peer support.
• Contribute to the delivery of the Practices operational plan, working closely with the Partners and Management Team.
• Embrace LMPs vision and values, and work collaboratively as part of a cohesive, multidisciplinary team.

Workload and ways of working

We are committed to maintaining safe, sustainable GP workloads. Clinical work is organised through micro-teams, supporting continuity and shared clinical responsibility. Appointment templates, administrative processes, and clinical support systems are designed to protect clinical time and reduce unnecessary workload. Demand, capacity, and ways of working are actively reviewed to ensure care remains safe for both patients and clinicians.

About us

We deliver services from seven locations across the city of Lancaster and its surrounding areas and continue to invest in our services, workforce, and infrastructure to improve outcomes for patients and staff.

We are a progressive, modern organisation with patient-centred general practice at our core. By joining TeamLMP, you will become part of a diverse group of clinical and non-clinical colleagues who work collaboratively to provide high-quality care for our local community.
