Training practice
Stonyhill Medical Practice is a teaching practice associated to Liverpool and Manchester University. We have post graduates, trainees and students working in the practice in order to gain experience.
In order to work in General Practice specialised vocational training is necessary. They are always closely supervised and will be clearly identified to you.
You have a right to decline to be treated by them or in their presence but your co-operation in enhancing their medical training and experience is greatly appreciated.
The practice is committed to improving medical education at all levels and all the practice Doctors are involved in this process.
Trainees
Stonyhill Medical Practice believes that medical education is vital in training our health care professionals and safeguarding the future of the NHS.
In order to provide this, trainees may be sitting in with your health care professional during your consultation.
Please be assured that trainees are bound by the same rules of confidentiality as the rest of the practice.
The experience that is acquired is necessary when seeing their own patient’s in the future.
The patient might be yourself or a loved one.
If you would prefer to see a health care professional alone, please inform the receptionist when you are booking in for your appointment.
