NHS General Practitioners (GPs)
GPs look after the health of people in their local community and deal with a range of health problems. They also provide health education, offer advice on smoking and diet, run clinics, give vaccinations and carry out simple surgical operations. GPs usually work in practices as part of a team, which includes nurses, healthcare assistants, practice managers, receptionists and other staff. The Practices also work closely with, for example, health visitors, midwives, and social services.
