This practice is a training practice. This means that we have General Practitioners who join us following several years of working in hospitals to learn about general practice. At present we have Dr Ciara Brennan working with us in this role. We also teach medical students for some weeks each year. This is vital experience for the students and you may be asked if you mind a student being present during your consultation.
