GP Training in and around Bath - what the Registrars say

We asked our SHOs and GP Registrars what they think of life here.

The SHO posts

"Well supported SHO posts with good middle grade cover in a friendly hospital."

"Good hospital jobs but busy; on-call not too frequent."

"Good collection of SHO posts which all have a great deal to offer as GP training jobs. I'm almost ashamed of how much I enjoyed my hospital rotation!"

The Day Release Course

"Friendly, well organised, interactive and relevant."

"Good fun; good quality teaching."

"It's very useful; a good break from work and a chance to meet other members of the course. It's also a chance to learn about topics not covered in the books, journals or formal tutorials."

"Always interesting and stimulating - I've really enjoyed my year."

"We are all motivated - helps when working for Summative Assessment and the MRCGP!"

The training practices

"Good standard of practices."

"Good quality of GPs as Trainers."

"My practice is friendly and supportive - excellent value."

"Well organised semi-rural practice with out-of-hours co-op in pleasant countryside."

"Good on-call system - and infrequent!"

The Bath area

"A beautiful area - a great city to live in!"

"Fantastic area, both scenically and culturally, to spend 3 years."

"I love being a country GP next to a beautiful and happening city!"

"Friendly people."

"Popular, so the standard of Registrars is high."
