We are proud to be a GP Training Practice involved in the training of the next generation of GPs. GP trainees are already qualified doctors who have completed several years in various specialties in hospital medicine, who are now choosing to specialise in General Practice. You may book an appointment with these doctors in the usual way, and may be asked to be involved in video consultations to aid their learning. We have strict rules regarding confidentiality with regards to all consultations, but particularly those being recorded.

Since August 2006 we have had a Foundation Doctor (FY2 Doctor) training with us. Foundation Doctors are fully qualified doctors who want to gain experience in General Practice. The FY2 doctor will have a placement with the practice on a 4-month rotation. Dr FitzGerald Frazer is the supervisor for the FY2 doctor. You will be able to book appointments with the Foundation Doctor in the usual way.

Medical students often sit in with the doctor. If you would rather see the doctor alone, please say so. We sometimes record consultations on video for teaching purposes within the practice, but your permission will always be asked for, and you will be free to consult in private if you prefer.
