Practice profile:

A small and well-motivated Dronfield based practice in modern purpose built premises, serving large local estates and surrounding villages. Situated 8 miles north of Chesterfield, 7 miles south of Sheffield & 4 miles east of the Peak District National Park.

Gosforth Valley Medical Practice is part of The Valleys Medical Partnership and we have a second site at Moss Valley Medical Practice in Eckington, which is also a training practice.

The branch site at Gosforth Valley has a team of 4 GPs, all of which are GP trainers or have completed clinical supervisor training. We have 3 practice nurses and an HCA. We also have a team of 6 administrators, supported by an Assistant Practice Manager.

This branch site shares the services of a full time Pharmacist, part time Phamacy Technician and a full time Practice Manager with our site in Eckington.

Gosforth Valley accommodates a team of up to 4 GP Registrars with a structured timetable including daily debriefs, weekly tutorials, weekly clinical team meetings and protected study time. Weekly tutorials are sometimes conducted along with GP Registrars from our site in Eckington

GP Registrars are encouraged to become an integral part of the Practice Team and are expected to take a fair share of the workload and responsibilities.

The Valleys Medical Partnership also accommodates up to 4 medical students (2 at each site), an F2 Doctor (at Moss Valley), a Physician Associate (at Moss Valley) and student nurses (at Moss Valley). We also provide full extended access services on behalf of 5 local practices during the evenings and at the weekend.
