The Cornerstone Practice is based in the

centre of March and looks after approximately 9,500 patients. We use SystmOne.

Our team includes GP partners, salaried

GPs, advanced practitioners, treatment room nurses, healthcare assistants, a

mental health practitioner and an experienced reception and administration

team.

We also work with pharmacy, physiotherapy

and social prescribing colleagues.

We want this to be a practice where people

can ask for help, speak honestly and have a life outside work. We cannot

promise quiet days in general practice, but we can promise colleagues who

understand the pressures and support one another through them.
