Buxted Medical Centre, incorporating our East Hoathly and Manor Oak (Horam) branches, is a welcoming and forward-thinking practice based in a purpose-built facility in the heart of the Sussex countryside. As a GP Training Practice and proud member of the Greater Wealden PCN, we are committed to delivering exceptional care in a supportive and collaborative environment.

We are a busy, friendly, and expanding three-partner practice, currently caring for a population of approximately 15,500 patients across our dispensing sites. To support our growing services, we are looking to recruit a receptionist to join our experienced team, working flexibly across our sites.
