“It was a great experience. The GP we observed was great at explaining the system and answering out questions, and it was great to watch someone who is so competent at their job! It was lovely to speak with all the different members of the practice and everyone made us feel very welcome and comfortable”
“I never believed that I would even consider a career in primary care after my experiences with one day placements previously. It seemed like the most boring job in the world. Now however, I have a clearer understanding of what it is actually like to work in primary care and the wonderful team…is a team I would absolutely adore to work with again in the future! The staff are all so friendly and genuinely interested in teaching, which was a breath of fresh air”
“This placement was one of the best placements I have ever been on as a student. Timetable was organised and given early on. All the doctors were great at teaching and gave us adequate attention. There was ample opportunity to practice skills and I was able to sign off almost all of my 1 per year sign offs as well. Overall a very successful placement”
“Had such an amazing experience at this practice! All the staff were absolutely lovely and made me feel so welcomed. My supervisor was great and very thorough, also allowed me lots of independence when seeing patients and forming management plans. Although I was really independent I still felt very well supported. Also got some time with shadowing doctors, ANP’s and PA’s and learned a lot from observing consultations”
“I learnt more about the work life balance as a GP. I learnt how a general practice consists of a wide range of allied health professionals as well as GP’s all working together in an MDT”
“Very friendly practice. I was given good direction for my audit and feedback to help me improve it. Given the opportunity to present my findings to the practice. Regular meetings with supervisor and felt well supported”
