GPs in Training
Our practice is approved to train fully qualified doctors who wish to specialise in general practice. Our GP registrar will have had 2-4 years of experience as a qualified hospital doctor working in various specialities. They consult patients on their own, under the mentorship of our trainers, Dr Stokes and Dr. Fletcher. Occasionally we ask permission to video a consultation. You will always be asked in advance and are given the option not to take part, and this will not affect your care in any way. No recording will be taken without your consent and the camera will be switched off on request. These videos are used only for educational purposes with the doctor doing the consultation and are destroyed after use.
Dr Wright and Dr Ross are currently the GP registrars at the practice.
Medical Students
Medical students are sometimes attached to the practice for 4 weeks as part of their training. Medical students spend their time observing consultations with members of our team but also carry out consultations themselves. All patients who are assessed by a medical student are subsequently discussed and seen by one of the GP's as well. If you do not wish a student to be present during your consultation, please inform the receptionist.
