William has more than 53 years’ experience in healthcare and social enterprise work – his roles have included Chief Executive of a NHS Shared Services Agency and Family Practitioner Committee, a Director with Strategic Health Authorities, supporting the development of over 20 social enterprises and of course his current role with Cheshire LMC.

William has worked at local, regional and national level, the latter with the Department of Health, as part of the team developing the original QoF scheme.

William joined the Cheshire LMC in late 2014 supporting the development of the organisation, to make it ‘Fit for the Future’ and widening its services to member practices. He brings with him the technical knowledge around the GP contract. He has long been inspired by the innovation, adaptability and energy of GPs and their teams to improve local services for people.

Originally from London/Essex, I qualified MBBS (London) in 1993 and, after a year living in Spain, I moved to Cheshire in 1997. After 9 years working in hospitals in A+E, medicine and anaesthetics/ITU I completed my GP training in 2003. I have been at the Audlem Medical Practice throughout my GP career, as trainee, locum, salaried GP, Partner and now Senior Partner and now work 7 sessions a week there.

Previously I have been a GP Trainer, and now I train Physicians Associates and Medical Students as part of the practice team alongside the Fountains Integrated Care Home Service. I am helping with the Cheshire LMC education steering group as I believe education is key to evolving how we practice in response to demands, how we make the most of the ICT opportunities available and in maintaining our interest and abilities in our work.

I am keen to use our ICT resources to help share information and support practices, and am always interested in any ICT feedback so please contact me if you have a question or want to be involved in ICT development.
