Medical Students

These are undergraduates in the last years of their training at The University of Sheffield. They work within the Surgery in order to experience General Practice before they qualify as doctors. They usually stay with us for a 6-week rotation. We have been very impressed by the quality of their work and their capabilities in general practice. The reception team will inform you when you book the appointment that you will be seeing a medical student first, who will take details and history from you and then, a GP will accompany them into the appointment to supervise. If you do not wish a student to be present this will not affect your treatment and inform the reception team when they offer the appointment.

Practice Management

The practice manager is involved in managing all of the business aspects of the practice such as making sure that the right systems are in place to provide a high quality of patient care, human resources, finance, patient safety, premises and equipment and information technology. The practice manager supports the GPs and other medical professionals with delivering patient services and also helps to develop extended services to enhance patient care.
