Teaching
The practice is involved in the teaching of a variety of students. These students involve medical students, nursing students, pre-reg pharmacists and physician associate students. You will be advised that a student may be sitting in with a doctor when you make your appointment. You may be asked if they can assist in your treatment.

Part of the training programme involves video recording patient consultations for teaching and assessment purposes. You may be asked to participate in a recorded consultation. The doctor will discuss this with you and if you agree to participate, you will be asked to sign a consent form. Intimate physical examinations will be not be recorded and the camera will be switched off if you request it. If you do not wish to be videoed this will not affect your consultation with the doctor.
