Berrymead GP Surgery
GP located in Buckinghamshire and serve 12,000 patients.
Berrymead Surgery had struggled to recruit a salaried GP for a long time and were using differnet locum GPs to cover all the required sessions per week. They were looking to reduce expenses, and gain continuity but still maintain an excellent & safe quality of service for patients. We approached the surgery and offered some taster sessions to show them how experienced Physician Associates work in primary care. We were able to save them 40% on their locum agency costs and improve their continuity of care. BM were very happy with the service, we were able to save them time by using our live scheduling platform, cost savings compared to agencies and provide a better continuity of care for their patients.
Walk in Centre
Walk in Centre located in the London capital
Open 8-8pm, 7 days a week
We were approached by a walk in centre who were struggling to hire salaried GPs to fill the 08:00-20:00 - 7 day rota. After our presentation of our services, how PAs work in primary care and the technology our company uses we initiated a trial period. Our Physician Associates were able to traige and see an undifferentiated mix of acute and chronic medical conditions that presented to the site. With our personalised service provision and individual client manager we were able to cover gaps in their rotas. We have acquired ongoing contracts covering adhoc shifts at this site.
