| Summary |
Medical partnerships are highly complex legal and financial entities. This book navigates the reader through the key issues and deals with the less tangible aspects such as partnership dynamics and organisational behaviour. Examples illustrate common difficulties and offer possible choices. It is clear, practical and readable and essential for all GPs entering a partnership. It is also relevant for GPs currently in partnerships, practices considering their partnership deed, Senior House Officers and GP registrars |
