  • Excellent

    I’m a newly-ish qualified GP. Subscribed to about 5 or 6 different primary care focused educational podcasts and this is by far the best.

    Clear presenters, appropriate length, excellent guests. Keep up the great work.

  • Highly educational

    Even for GPs as far as Scotland as I am, this podcast is relevant and well planned and executed.

    Really useful show notes as well.

    The case study approach is very helpful too

  • Love this podcast series

    I used this series when revising for my GP exams and now listen regularly as a GP partner. I frequently go back to the podcasts on Eczema and Psoriasis as so many helpful prescribing tips and share with trainees. I find these so easy to listen to in the car on the way to and home from work. I also recommend the fibro podcast which also really changed how I approach those consultations.

  • Best podcast for GP’s

    I am a gpst3 and have been listening to these for the last couple of years, I can do ‘revision runs’ and they keep me engaged, teach me a lot and make me laugh at times. The BEST episode is on eczema, I admit I’ve listened to it about five times and I feel my eczema consultations are some of my strongest thanks to this episode, it’s even improved my little boys eczema!! I recommend it to everyone! Thanks for the podcast!
