We are proud to be a GP Training practice. You may be offered an appointment with a GP trainee who is a fully qualified doctor who has chosen a career in general practice, a junior Doctor who is also a fully qualified Doctor or a 5th year medical trainee (who isn't a fully qualified Doctor yet. If you see a 5th year trainee, as GP from Penny Lane Surgery will be present during the consultation to supervise).
We appreciate our trainees for their energy, enthusiasm and for keeping us on our toes with up to date medical practice!
