Hello there, a pleasure to meet you,
I am Dr Kieran Sharrock, and I have been a GP in Lincolnshire since 2001. I have worked at Skegness, Mablethorpe, and Spilsby surgeries until my recent move out of Lincolnshire.
I am delighted to be involved in Private GP Lincs. This exciting project started a year ago when myself and the Private GP Lincs team came together to develop a service which provides a traditional model of general practice so that patients can get the care they want.
I have worked in many roles alongside my GP work. I was involved for over 15 years with Lincolnshire LMC, the body which supports all Lincolnshire’s GP practices. In this role I frequently saw how frustrated patients became with getting the care they wanted, and how upset the doctors were that they could not support their patients how they wanted to.
I love working as a GP. The doctor-patient relationship is a privilege which gives me an insight into people’s lives like hardly any other job can.
I want patients to be able to book appointments with a GP of their choice at a time which is convenient for them, which is why Private GP Lincs empowers people to pick the appointment they want on line without having to negotiate the hurdles seen in the NHS.
The team we have working at Private GP Lincs have years of experience in general practice and caring for patients. They have all committed to this project so that patients can get the relationship-based care that we all want. I am looking forward to working with them over the coming months and years and hope we can expand so all the people of Lincolnshire will have the choice and convenience we provide.
