Hopwood House is a HEE approved Teaching & Training Practice. We are pleased to be a training practice for postgraduate doctors who have worked in hospitals and are gaining experience of General Practice. Dr Hunjan is a Clinical Supervisor for GP ST1, 2 & 3’s in a Primary Care setting on 6 monthly placements on a continuous rotation.
We believe that achieving and maintaining training practice status enhances the quality of the medical care that we provide at the practice. It also enables patients to see a wider range of clinicians whilst allowing the surgery to benefit from the fresh ideas and approaches brought by young enthusiastic doctors. You can of course still elect to see your chosen regular doctor but sometimes this may require you to plan your appointment.
If you are seeing this doctor you can expect to receive the same quality of service you would receive from your own GP. If you have any concerns please contact the Practice Manager.
In order for the GP Registrars to successfully complete their training they need to be assessed on their consulting skills. This is done by Dr Hunjan assessing the registrar’s consultations.
We are also a teaching and training practice for a full range of other Clinical Practitioners.
We hope you will welcome and encourage the GP registrar to our practice. There is a national shortage of GP’s and this is a positive process for the GP Registrar, the practice, the NHS and most importantly the patents. We are sure you will agree this is a good thing!
