Telemedicine Jobs for GPs

Telemedicine jobs for GPs are remote roles where general practitioners handle first-contact medicine — everyday illnesses, repeat prescriptions, referrals, and health questions — by secure video instead of in a surgery.

On GeraClinic, you set your own hours and consultation fee, keep 85% of every consultation, and are paid within 3-5 business days — free to apply, no minimum hours, working entirely from home.

Why general practice works remotely

General practice carries the broadest online demand because it is the first point of contact for almost everything. A large share of GP work — history-led assessment, medication reviews, results discussions, referrals, and sick notes — needs judgement more than palpation, which is why it is the busiest specialty in online consulting.

What patients book gps for online

This mirrors what patients see on the online general practice consultation page — their demand is your caseload:

  • Coughs, colds, and flu-like illness
  • Repeat prescriptions and medication reviews
  • Skin complaints that can be shown on camera
  • Minor urinary symptoms with onward testing arranged where needed
  • Referral letters and fit/sick notes where the consultation supports it
  • General health questions and next-step guidance

Honest limits

Anything needing physical examination, urgent assessment, or procedures must go in person — a good online GP is defined by clean safety-netting and knowing when to redirect.

How to apply

  1. Apply online with your license, credentials, and specialties — about 10 minutes, free.
  2. Credential verification with your national medical registry typically takes 2-3 business days.
  3. Set your availability, consultation types, and fee — then go live and accept bookings.
