G DOC Team

BA Hons, MA, MBChB, MRCEM (2003), MRCGP (2006)

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 G DOC 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.

I joined G DOC as their first employee in June 2015. As a qualified Accounting Technician, I assisted in the set up and implementation of Choice+, and other pilot projects, by helping to develop robust financial processes and procedures.
With the ever changing face of primary care, we are undertaking new projects and supporting our member practices with new initiatives such as Improved Access. This has led to an evolving work role and environment, so it is an exciting time at G DOC.
Prior to joining G DOC, I worked in the Social Care sector for over 10 years. From working in the Care Homes dealing with residents’ finances and contracts to managing a payroll and finance team. This has given me a breadth of finance experience which I bring to my role at G DOC.

I have worked within the property industry for 20 years which means that I bring a wealth of knowledge from all aspects of an office based and customer service role.
I started working for G DOC in July 18 and really enjoy working with the team.
I am assisting the finance team in various aspects and enjoying the challenges of a new role.
I am continuing to maintain the high standard within our finance department and currently involved within new projects being setup, that are dedicated to assist in primary care.

I joined G DOC LTD in October 2020. I have over 25 years experience in PA roles, mainly in the financial services sector. I am delighted to be part of the G DOC team assisting in the roll-out of interesting projects across Gloucestershire.

I joined GDOC in March 2021 as a Finance and Business Assistant. I have worked in finance for 13 years for various sectors such as fast food and leisure. I enjoy working in finance and In 2012 and 2013, I gained my AAT Accountancy Technician level 2 and 3.

I look forward to working alongside the team and learning more about GDOC and future projects.

I am the G DOC Improved Access Service Lead and IT. I joined the company in September 2015 to manage the implementation of the Choice+ service across Gloucestershire.

Following its initial roll-out in the Gloucester and Cheltenham localities, I worked closely with colleagues at the Gloucester Health Access Centre to establish a network of 21 urgent care centres or “hubs”. At its peak the Choice+ service offered in excess of 7800 additional primary care appointments a month to support local practices.

Prior to G DOC I spent 38 years working for the Ministry of Defence in a variety of different roles. Initially the emphasis was on IT, with work in mainframe operations, programming and installation management. Latterly, I moved into project manager with six years experience gained during public service procurements. I secured multi-million pound cost savings achieved by re-competing outsourced HR services through the effective management of a multi-disciplinary project team.
