About us
We are in Fairford - a small rural town in Gloucestershire, close to the Oxfordshire and Wiltshire borders.
We are a friendly supportive team of around 35 people.
Hilary Cottage Surgery has been a part of the Fairford community for many years - currently run by 3 GP partners.
We are a small rural practice with around 7500 patients on our books. We have 7 amazing GPs, a bunch of amazing disensing staff and secretaries, and a brilliant reception team. Our nursing team is fabulous, and there aren't enough superlatives to describe our incredible admin team, which you would be a part of.
If you're not in Fairford, you would enjoy a short rural drive to and from the surgery - and if you are local you can walk to work.
With a focus on everyone's well-being at work, we are supportive and friendly from top to bottom, and (we think) a great place to work!
