Providing health care to the Isle of Coll

Coll Medical Practice

Our aim is to provide high quality, sustainable health care on the island. We as partners will be heavily involved in the running of the practice, providing significant periods of clinical cover on Coll throughout the year as well as remote cover every working day. We foresee that routine and chronic disease management consultations can be dealt with in this way. We will oversee test results and specialist referrals too.

What We Need

There will always be a skilled clinician physically present on the island 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year! This clinician may be another GP colleague or an advanced nurse practitioner (ANP) who specialises in general practice.

This clinician will be qualified in clinical examination, prescribing, and pre-hospital emergency care. Your clinician will be fully vetted, registered with their appropriate governing body and be fully engaged with appraisal and revalidation. We are committed to becoming integrated into the island community of Coll and take seriously our responsibility to its residents. We are a dynamic partnership that is eager to provide exceptional, compassionate care for our patients.

Who we are

We are a happy, stable partnership comprising two married couples. We have worked together for many years at Denny Cross Medical Practice in Forth Valley.
