About the Book

General practice is fast-paced, complex and deeply human. For trainees just starting out, the challenge is not just learning medicine but how to do so well under pressure, while putting the patient’s needs front and centre.
How to Thrive as a GP Trainee is a practical, supportive guide to the realities of GP training; it covers, for example:

  • common clinical presentations in primary care
  • the art of the ten-minute consultation
  • managing difficult encounters
  • navigating portfolios, feedback and exams
The book also explores the human side of training, addressing confidence, uncertainty, resilience, and finding your own voice as a doctor. It features multiple reflections based on years of experience to emphasise that learning in general practice is a continuous process.
How to Thrive as a GP Trainee offers clear, grounded advice on managing the everyday cases that fill GP surgeries, recognising red flags, communicating effectively with patients, and making sound decisions in limited time. It offers all those starting out in primary care the practical advice they need to provide great care, to manage their workload, and to build a sustainable career.
