📢 We’re Hiring – Clinical Pharmacist

Our practice is looking for an enthusiastic and motivated Clinical Pharmacist to join our multidisciplinary team. This is a fantastic opportunity to play a key role in delivering high‑quality patient care, supporting medication management, and contributing to the ongoing development of our services.

If you’re passionate about improving patient outcomes, confident working independently, and keen to be part of a supportive NHS Wales GP surgery, we’d love to hear from you.

We want to make patients aware that our practice will be transitioning to a new clinical system between 20 May and 1 June.

During this period, we will be operating an emergency‑only service, and there will be some unavoidable disruption to our usual processes. We will also be unable to print prescriptions during this time, so we kindly ask patients to submit any repeat medication requests as early as possible. Where appropriate, we will issue up to two months’ worth of medication in advance to ensure continuity of care.

Thank you for your patience and understanding while we complete this important upgrade to improve our services.

There will be no sit & wait clinic tomorrow (01/04).

Doctor clinics start @ 9:30m, we are still open @ 8am to take calls and bookings. Nurse clinics are unaffected.

03/03/2026

The practice will be closed on Wednesday 4 March 2026 from 1:00pm until 6:30pm for Protected Learning Time.

Protected Learning Time allows GP practices across the area to close at the same time so staff can take part in essential training and development.

What to do if you need urgent help while the practice is closed?

Call the usual practice phone number and we will triage your call. If appropriate/urgent we will have a GP OOH contact you to deal with your situation whilst we are closed for training.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused. Pharmacist consultations will go ahead, please book in using the screen at reception.
