Student education

I work as a clinical GP two days a week and as a clinical teaching fellow two days a week at the university. My academic role involves teaching Year 2, Year 3 and Year 4 MBBS students regarding primary care. My role also involves developing new teaching sessions and we are in the process of evaluating some of these new sessions via research projects.

For the 2025-26 academic year I am the interim lead for the third year Primary Care ICU on the MBBS course and also the lead for the GP visiting lecturer scheme. This scheme entails GP registrars being mentored in developing their teaching skills over the course of one or two academic years.
