GP Recruitment event 15th July - Our popular GP recruitment events of the past four years gave GPs and GP Trainees the chance to meet up and talk to a wide variety of Somerset practices all in one session. We have re-designed the format so this year you are able to do this online. Registration and participation is free. There will be two sessions available to book on the day which hopefully will fit within any work commitments, they will run from 14.30-17.00 and 18.30-21.00 you can book either or both, the full detail on the event and how to book can be found here . Practices that would like to take part in this event the full detail of how the evening will run, booking details and what we are asking you to prepare can be found here.
