Training
In 2004 the practice became
accredited as a training practice for new GPs.
Dr Hatfull and Dr Phillips are the GP trainers. We will have
GP registrars attached to the practice on a regular
basis. Our registrars are fully qualified
and have a great deal of hospital experience. Registrars
are attached to the practice for 12 months and usually
become general practitioners after completing their
training. They are at all times encouraged to seek
advice when required from the practice partners.
We will also be welcoming Doctors called "F2" trainees.
These are postgraduate junior Doctors in their second
year of training after medical school. They may wish to
pursue careers in other specialties other than General
Practice and are here to gain insight in the working of
community medicine. They are closely supervised but are
qualified Doctors.
We are also fortunate to have medical students attached
to our practice for short periods. Dr Phillips teaches students from the
University of Southampton Medical School. If you do not wish to
have the student present during your consultation please
inform the reception staff prior to seeing the doctor.
When booking an appointment you may be asked if you
would consult with one of our registrars. Please feel
free to decline if you have concerns.
T.A.R.G.E.T.
On four afternoons a year from
1.00pm the practice will be closed for staff training.
T.A.R.G.E.T was developed in 2004
by the Fareham and Gosport Primary Care Trust to give
protected time for the doctors, nurses and other staff
for education and development of the practice. We will
advertise these days in advance both on the website and
at reception.
Emergency cover for problems that
can not wait until the next day is provided from 1.00pm
by telephoning 02392 377921.
