Salaried GP or GP Partner? – Come Join Us at Alva Medical Practice
Alva & Tullibody | NHS Forth Valley | Training Practice
Looking for a GP role where you’re genuinely supported, your ideas are welcomed, and your coffee break is considered essential rather than optional?
At Alva Medical Practice, we’re on the lookout for an enthusiastic GP to join us for 5–7 sessions per week. Whether you’re looking for a salaried role or a partnership, we’d love to have a chat.
Why you’ll love it here
We’re a friendly, well-established split-site practice serving around 13,350 patients across Alva and Tullibody—and we pride ourselves on being a place where people enjoy coming to work (and staying for a proper catch-up over coffee).
You’ll be joining a stable, supportive partnership of 7 GP Partners and 1 Management Partner, alongside 4 Salaried GPs and a GP Retainer —a team that works collaboratively, laughs often, and looks out for one another.
We believe good General Practice is built on strong relationships, shared workload, and the occasional well-timed biscuit break.
Our culture is genuinely collegiate and approachable, with a focus on delivering high-quality, sustainable care without losing the human side of the job.
A Team That’s Got Your Back
You won’t be doing this alone. Our experienced and proactive multidisciplinary team includes:
6 Practice-employed and PCIP Advanced Nurse Practitioners
3 Skilled Practice Nurses
A dedicated Pharmacotherapy Team
2 Mental Health Nurses
CTAC support for phlebotomy
2 Advanced Practice Physiotherapists
Attached District Nursing and Health Visiting Teams
Plus, a fantastic admin and management team who keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes.
We’re Big on Learning (and Teaching Too)

There’s a real buzz about learning here—whether you’re teaching, mentoring, or picking up new ideas yourself.
