Training

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 trainer, Dr Hockley. 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 Salim is currently the GP registrar at the practice.

Medical Students

The practice will soon be hosting medical students from Southampton University as part of their training. We also have links with the new medical school in Portsmouth, and we hope to welcome their students in the future.

These students will be sitting in during consultations and may speak with patients as part of their learning experience. Please be assured that full patient confidentiality will always be maintained, and you are under no obligation to speak with a student if you would prefer not to.

We are delighted to support the next generation of doctors and thank you for helping us provide them with invaluable experience in real practice
