Job summary
Hywel Dda University Health Board is looking for a committed and capable General Practitioner to join our Out of Hours / Urgent Primary Care Service. This is a senior clinical role, where you will lead by example, offer supervision, training and support to colleagues, and help maintain a safe, effective and collaborative working environment.
