- Ambrose Avenue Group Practice, Riverside Medical Centre & Ardleigh Surgery
- Mersea Island Medical Practice, Tiptree Medical Centre & Rowhedge Medical Centre
- Walton Medical Centre, Colne Medical Centre & Wivenhoe Medical Centre

There is a wide socio-economic demographic served within this area, which provides an interesting and varied case mix. You will be joining an enthusiastic team of clinicians and administrators.
