Views: 316
Interested in quality of life and a traditional patient-centred approach with continuity of care at the heart of your practice?
Come to work with us at Dunster and Porlock surgeries on Exmoor, a unique landscape of moorland and woodland where wild red deer roam, dark skies are full of stars and high cliffs plunge into the sea. Enjoy cosy pubs and tearooms in characterful, historic villages.
We pride ourselves on our commitment to care for our patients in an old-fashioned way from cradle to grave with excellent continuity of care which is so often lost in these new models of Primary Care.
Dunster and Porlock Surgeries are two highly rated and welcoming practices, serving vibrant communities. Dunster Surgery is a rural, family medical practice with spacious, bespoke premises overlooking the village cricket pitch. Porlock Medical Centre has views onto the moors and across the sea to Wales yet is located right on the edge of the village.
Both practices CQC rated in 2018 as ‘Outstanding’. Both rated by Severn Deanery as ‘Excellent’ training locations and this year we were recognised as one of the Top 100 Practices in the country.
We are a happy, friendly team who support each other to achieve our mission of providing Gold standard care. We actively encourage personal and professional development and consider ourselves innovative and forward thinking whilst retaining the ethos of a family practice.
Registered patients 7800; list steadily growing
Excellent nursing, reception and administrative teams
