General Practice in Arran
General Practice on Arran is a varied and interesting job in a beautiful environment with a great quality of life. This is an opportunity to work somewhere where you have time to address patient problems.
As well as traditional style general practice, GPs are involved in a very wide range of enhanced and hospital services. It is the chance to use the skills you were trained for and, if wanted, to develop areas of special interest. It is the chance to work in a community that is proud and supportive of its health services.
Working on Arran demands generalist skills. As a GP, you could quite literally be seeing a patient with diabetes one minute, and attending a road accident or applying a plaster cast the next. The island is rich in learning opportunities, and we’re keen to make this available for those who are studying or training – both in nursing and medicine.

At Lamlash we enjoy having local school pupils, students, trainees, rural fellows work with us – they bring fresh ideas and enthusiasm into the practice, and teaching is a natural role of being a doctor or nurse. We are grateful to our patients for their understanding that teaching sometimes makes appointments a bit longer, but often a bit more fun and interesting too. It is a vital part of helping to educate and train the next generation of GPs too. If you would like to join our amazing group of Alumni?
