I trained as a GP in Gloucester. I was a partner in two city practices and represented Gloucester on the LMC for seven years. In 2008, I set up Gloucester GP Consortium with colleagues in the city and went on to be the medical director of Gloucestershire Care Services NHS Trust, before joining GDoc in 2016. I am a Clinical Associate to the New Care Models programme of NHS England and, until recently, the Care Quality Commission’s advisor on urgent care. I am a non-executive director of the MDDUS.

Before becoming a GP, I trained in emergency medicine and intensive care, with membership of the Royal College of Emergency Medicine. I have an MA in medical law and ethics and have studied transformational change in healthcare at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard.

Dr Probert joined the practice in 2002. He has a particular interest in diabetes, paediatrics and sexual health. He is also interested in training and education and has been appointed an Honorary Teacher at the University of Bristol.

I have a background in nursing and smoking cessation. I have been a GP Practice Manager for the past 26 years in London, Tewkesbury and the North Cotswolds.

I helped to set up GDoc in 2012 and have been on the Board of Directors since. I do have a particular interest in supporting Practice Managers and set up the Gloucestershire Practice Manager Mentor scheme in 2013. I helped to develop the GP Access Fund bid and also worked closely with SWAST as part of the GDoc collaboration on Out of Hours. Recently I have helped establish and develop the GDoc nursing team, offering practices short or longer term support to cover absences and mentoring Practice Nurses in training.

I am a Managing Partner at Cotswold Medical Practice in Bourton-on-the-Water and Northleach.

Doctor Robin Hollands, I am the Senior Partner of the Underwood Surgery in Cheltenham.

I am also the Lead GP for the Central Cheltenham Cluster.

I have been a GP partner in the Forest of Dean for the last 16 years. I also work regular out of hours shifts in the locality. I play an active part in Cluster Group meetings and activities.
I have been a director of GDoc for the past four years and have been proud to be part of a team that has worked and continues to strive to support General Practices in the Forest of Dean and around Gloucestershire.
