5th Year Medical Student
Certain doctors' practices are specially selected as places where newly qualified doctors can experience what it is like to work in a good practice. We are fortunate to be such a practice - indeed we have been a training practice for over 15 years.
Registrars have graduated as doctors and those that wish to become GP's spend a total of one year following their two foundation years training within the practice, firstly four months then eight months. They receive appropriate training and gain valuable experience with us and we believe our practice and our patients gain a lot from them as they bring with them to the practice up to date knowledge and techniques as well as a friendly enthusiasm.
Not all registrars are new doctors. For example, when Dr Mark initially joined us as a registrar, she had worked for many years in an obstetrics department in a major hospital in the south of England and brought a high degree of expertise to the practice in this important area of medicine.
Since 2006 we have developed to include 5th year medical students and 2nd year Foundation doctors, who are with us for four months at a time.
The medical student is in their 5th year of medical training prior to graduation. Following graduation the GP has two foundation years before becoming a GP registrar.
We believe our practice and our patients gain a lot from our trainees who bring to the practice up to date knowledge and techniques, as well as a friendly enthusiasm. Occasionally you may be asked for your consent in taking a video of your consultation in order to assist them with training.
We also provide a practice placement for student nurses undertaking their RGN training with Nottingham University. This is under the supervision of the Nurses
