GPs in Training

Our practice is a teaching practice and is approved to train fully qualified doctors who wish to specialise in general practice.

Medical Students: Individuals who are studying medicine at university. They are in the process of learning about medical science and clinical skills but are not yet qualified doctors.

F2s (Foundation Year 2 Doctors): After graduating from medical school, doctors in the UK enter a two-year Foundation Programme. F2s are in their second year of this programme. They are fully qualified doctors gaining practical experience in various medical specialties.

ST1s (Specialty Trainee Year 1): After completing the Foundation Programme, doctors choose a specialty to train in, such as general practice, surgery, or paediatrics. ST1s are in their first year of specialty training.

ST2s (Specialty Trainee Year 2): These doctors are in their second year of specialty training. They continue to develop their skills and knowledge in their chosen field.

Occasionally, as part of their training, our trainees may be required to sit in with their trainer GP during consultations with patients. For more information, please visit our website.

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.
