Training Future Doctors

Education & Development
As a practice, we are very interested in education and development. To offer an excellent service to you, it is important that we all keep up to date. Every practice member has regular training, and all the doctors are involved in training and learning.

Burford Medical Group as a Training Practice
We are accredited as a training practice and three of the partners - Drs Sharpley, Albert and Hancock are accredited as GP Trainers.  Doctors come and work with us as part of their specialist post-graduate training in general practice. They are fully qualified doctors who have been gaining experience in hospital medicine. We value the opportunity of helping to develop the family doctors of the future. We also teach Oxford University medical students and they may occasionally sit in during consultations – we always ask your permission before allowing them to see you, so if you would rather see the doctor alone, please feel free to decline. Additionally, doctors occasionally video their consultations for teaching and examination purposes.  You will always be asked for consent before this and we completely understand if you would rather not take part in this.
