Medical Students

Our practice is a community teaching practice for Kings College London School of Medicine. 

We are involved in training student doctors, student nurses and GP specialty trainees. With the supervision of your doctor or nurse, medical students may, with your consent in advance, join your consultation. This is one way medical students learn to become good doctors and understand patient views about their care. GP specialty trainees are qualified doctors who have already completed their hospital training and are receiving more training to become GPs. They will see patients at the consultation stage.

We will always ask you whether you are willing to have a student doctor or student nurse present. We will understand if you want to see your doctor alone. He or she may sometimes want to video consultations for teaching purposes only. In this case, you would be warned in advance and asked for your written permission. You do not have to agree to having your consultation recorded.

We appreciate your help with their learning. Please let your doctor or practice manager know if you have any questions about our community medical teaching.
