GP Specialty Training
There has been an increase in the number of enquiries about how to become a GP from trainees across all specialties, consultant, trust and staff grade doctors. Changes in the NHS over recent years means that more services are provided by multi-professional primary care teams. The report, ‘ The future of primary care, creating teams for tomorrow’ gives more insight into these developments.
We understand that it is not so easy to find information when you have moved on from the normal training cycle. There are some case studies and frequently asked questions on the GP National Recruitment Office (GPNRO) website and ask that you forward on this email to your networks, colleagues, peers or friends who may be interested about switching to a career as a GP. Email gprecruitment@hee.nhs.uk if you would like to be put in contact with someone who has retrained as a GP.
