Where are we?

Camberley Health Centre has been a training practice for 20 years.  It is a five-partner practice with 2 retainee doctors and a salaried doctor. There are 2 trainers and a course organiser within the practice and 2 recent registrars are now partners in the practice. 3 partners are also GP appraisers. One doctor is also a family planning trainer. 2 registrars can be accommodated.

The practice has a full commitment to training and education and is also involved in medical student and nurse education.  The premises include an education suite with library, internet and audiovisual aids. Each day there is a half hour coffee session allowing clinical and non-clinical problems can be discussed with all the doctors. There is a monthly dedicated educational half-day when all the doctors meet to discuss such issues as audit, clinical update, critical events and other learning needs. There is ample additional time for private study and tutorials. There are twice monthly Primary Health Care team meetings. We have a 100% MRCGP pass rate with several distinctions!

A ‘paperless’ practice has been achieved by comprehensive computerisation.  All the usual members of the Primary Health Care Team including specialist diabetic nurses, counsellors and clinical psychologists work from the attractive premises.
