Training Practice

We are a training practice, which means we often have a registrar in the practice for a year. The registrar is a fully qualified doctor with a wide range of hospital experience (at least three years in various specialities). Some of their surgery consultations may be videoed for training purposes but we will always seek permission before doing this.

We are also an approved practice for medical students to gain experience in general practice. If the doctor has a student with them, the receptionist and doctor will inform you. If you would prefer to see the doctor alone please say so.
