GP return to practice programme

Return to Practice (RtP) programme (for UK qualified GPs)

The Return to Practice (RtP) programme provides a safe, supported pathway for qualified GPs wishing to return to NHS General Practice after an absence.

The Return to Practice (RtP) programme is designed for General Practitioners (GPs) who have previously been on the General Medical Council (GMC) GP Register and All Wales Medical Performers List (MPL) and would like to return to work in general practice after a break in their career.

The programme offers personalised pathways based on the individual needs of each returning GP.

All GPs are required to be on the GMC GP Register with a Licence to Practise and the All Wales MPL.
