Approved GP Training Practice:

The Hamilton Practice is an approved training
practice for the training of General Practice
Registrars (GPRs).
GPRs are doctors in training who are qualified doctors and have already worked in hospitals as junior doctors for at least 3 years.
They, however, would like to specialise in General Practice. 
In order to qualify as a GP all doctors have to complete postgraduate training which includes at least 18 months training in General Practice.
The practice will be regularly assessed for its suitability for postgraduate training in general practice by the East of England Deanery and was newly assessed in July 2011. This process includes an inspection of medical records for quality, NOT content. If you object to your record being seen for this process then you must let the Practice Manager know in writing so these notes can be withdrawn.
It usually appoints doctors who are already on the West Essex Vocational Training Scheme.
An essential component of training in all medical practice is the use of video and joint consultations. We hope that all our patients will be willing to take part in these educational surgeries to help us all in improving and maintaining our medical and consultation skills. All video recordings are strictly confidential and are used for teaching only.
The trainer(s) at the practice are: Dr. Nazmul Mohsin who is currently the sole approved trainer in the practice, but all the doctors and nurses will be involved in training.
From time to time, the practice also invites medical students from Barts Hospital and 3rd year medical students for training.
