Medical Training

The Palms GP Surgery is a training practice for a variety of medical trainees.

Currently these trainees come from the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland, Trinity College Dublin, University College Dublin. These students are in the final stages of their undergraduate medical training. If a student is with your GP they will inform you before you enter the room. You may decline to have a student present if you wish.

The practice is also a training practice for specialist trainees in general practice from the Irish College of General Practitioners training scheme. These trainees are qualified experienced doctors and are undertaking further experience and training in general practice. They remain in the practice from periods of 4 months to 1 year.

The practice also hosts trainees from other countries who wish to gain experience in Irish general practice.
