Located in the heart of Thomas Hardy’s historic Dorchester, surrounded by stunning landscapes, peaceful villages and vibrant towns, the Atrium Health Centre is a three partner, 7000 patient GP surgery.

We are a friendly bunch who recognise the importance of getting the work/life balance right.

Our close-knit clinical team embraces working together to get problems sorted. We employ a clinical pharmacist to help with medicines management and paramedics for our home visits. We also benefit from the services of a number of ARRS staff via our PCN including a Frailty team, visiting paramedics, Clinical Pharmacists and a Digital\Admin team.  Our doctors have embraced telemedicine, video calls and eConsults. We currently use an eConsult first system to triage appointments which means our patients are getting face-to-face or telephone appointments much quicker than our old telephone first system.

Our branch surgery Crossways is a dispensing practice nestled in a growing village, a 10-minute drive south east of Dorchester. It’s staffed by an experienced team and offers the rewarding continuity of care a smaller surgery can bring.

If you’d like to arrange an informal visit to the practice to discuss the roles below, or just have a chat, please contact the person listed below each role.  Alternatively email our Business Partner, Lisa Fall via lisa.fall@dorsetgp.nhs.uk.
