About the speaker

Dr Sarah Richards
Gloucestershire GP Support Lead

I have been a GP in Gloucestershire since 1993 after spending a few years in NZ and Australia. I was a GP partner for 20 years then had a career break due to family illness and then returned to General Practice during the pandemic. I work as a salaried GP and I am also a GP appraiser, a crematorium medical referee ,coach and mentor, peer mentor supervisor and I have a role as the Gloucestershire GP support lead offering confidential peer support to Gloucestershire GPs for the primary care learning hub. I am interested in pastoral and professional support and development at all stages of a career and keeping a healthy balance for family life and personal wellbeing.
