Medical Students
We are a training practice for medical students. From time to time students sit in with our GPs, Practice Nurse and Health Care Assistants as part of their training. We feel that we are playing a valuable role in the education of the next generation of doctors, and feedback from ‘real’ patients in the GP surgery is an important part of their learning. You will always be asked for your permission for a student to be present during your consultation, and you have the right to refuse.
