Training

Bridge of Allan Health Centre has been accredited as a Training Practice, coaching GPs of the future.

Dr Niamh Mullins and Dr Claire Clark are the designated GP Trainers but all doctors in the Practice have a significant role to play in training our assigned doctors.The doctors are supervised throughout their journey with us and in addition to the doctors being assessed, the Practice is also inspected periodically.

The doctors join us for an extended period of time:

FY2 (Foundation year) – 4 months
ST1 (Specialist GPs in their 1st year) – 6 months
ST3 (Specialist GPs in their 3rd year) – minimum 12 months

We would like to welcome our new Doctors in training Dr Alice Hepburn and Dr Uchenna Iwumune.  

The Practice benefits from the doctors experience, having worked in alternative medical environments prior to joining us. In addition, we are able to offer additional appointments and choice of doctor during their time with us.

As part of the doctors’ training programme they have to video a certain number of consultations for assessment. You will always be asked in advance for consent.
