Goodbye and Welcome!

We are a GP Training practice and regularly have doctors attached to us who are training to become GP's. In the practice there are three approved GP Trainers - Dr Brown, Dr Walsh and Dr Harding. Trainees are attached to the practice for either six or twelve months and change around at the start of August and February. Change over day this time is Wednesday, 1st August.

We are saying goodbye to Dr Mirza (she is now fully qualified and going to do sessions at the Olympics), Dr Hilton (Kings Medical Practice was her first post on a three year GP training post and she is going to do Emergency Medicine at Leeds), Dr Towers (she will be entering her second year of training and is going to Pinderfields to do Paediatrics) and Dr Rafique (who is going to College Lane Surgery at Ackworth to complete his training).

The doctors who are replacing them are; Dr Mo Sinha, Dr Prab Matharu, Dr Emma Barker and Dr Amina Vandu-Chikolo. We have more training doctors attached to us and just to complete the list; Dr Michelle Chafer will be with us till the middle of October, Dr Katie McGowan is currently on maternity leave and will be back for a few weeks when she has had her baby and Dr Mo Shaikeh will be joining us for seven months in August sometime.

We wish all the doctors who are leaving us good luck in their future careers and send a big warm welcome to all the doctors who are joining us.
