Our practice is approved to train fully qualified doctors who wish to specialise in general practice. Our Resident Doctors will have had 2-4 years of experience as a qualified hospital doctor working in various specialities. Resident Doctors consult patients on their own, under the mentorship of our trainer, Dr Hennessy. Occasionally we may ask permission to video a consultation. You will always be asked in advance and are given the option not to take part, and this will not affect your care in any way. No recording will be taken without your consent and the camera will be switched off on request. These videos are used only for educational purposes with the doctor doing the consultation and are destroyed after use.
Dr Mohammad Abdelkader and Dr Arif Muhammed are our current Resident Doctors.
Medical students are sometimes attached to the Practice as part of their training. If you do not wish a student to be present during your consultation, please inform the receptionist.

Reception
Receptionists provide an important link for patients with the practice and are your initial contact point for general surgery enquiries. They can provide basic information on our services and results or direct you to the right person depending on your health issue or query. Receptionists make most of the patient appointments with the GPs and nurses. They also perform other important tasks such as issuing repeat prescriptions and dealing with prescription enquiries, dealing with financial claims, dealing with patient records and carrying out searches and practice audits.
