Work and live on a Remote Scottish Island

What do you want from life? Less stress? More time to think? More time to look after your patients? A chance to connect with a small tight knit community? A chance to live closer to nature…. and further away from the traffic jams and frenetic lifestyles of modern existence?


What do you want from life? Less stress? More time to think? More time to look after your patients? A chance to connect with a small tight knit community? A chance to live closer to nature…. and further away from the traffic jams and frenetic lifestyles of modern existence?

North Uist can offer you all this and more. A traditional crofting area in one of the most beautiful landscapes imaginable, but with access to an airport 30 minutes drive away, and 2 ferry links to the mainland.

A paradise for bird watching, surfing, windsurfing, kayaking, walking and sailing – there is an opportunity here for a complete change in lifestyle. You would be joining a welcoming practice with genuinely friendly staff who get along well, and where you could make a real difference to the health and well being of the community that you live in.

Hours can be flexibly arranged with the right individual.

Salaried or partnership options would be considered.

• 15 min appointments, 2 hour long surgeries.
• Working normal office hours is possible as OOH care is delegated to the health board. There is a great opportunity here to use any emergency medical care skills that you have in the OOH setting if you enjoy this type of work however.
• Paper-light practice running EMIS software.
• Modern Health Board owned Primary Care Centre.
• Dispensing practice of 1400 patients. 2 WTE GPs • Opportunity to develop skills working in a modern Community Hospital.
