Course Overview

"The opportunities Leicester presents to its students have a unique feel. A mix of lectures and group work encouraged me to manage my time and helped me learn through discussing questions. I found this way of learning suited me, and it has prepared me for clinical practice and continuous learning on the job. Early exposure to patients helped me understand sympathy and empathy and appreciate the patient's journey. I particularly enjoyed dissection; this allowed us to learn anatomy in a way that no textbook could do justice. Having experienced this, I have found that my understanding of anatomy has stuck with me and is something I have found easier to apply every day.

"I completed my foundation training having worked in all three Leicester hospitals which I thoroughly enjoyed. I am also an Emergency Medicine trainee in the East Midlands. The hospitals here provide experience with some of the most diverse patient and staff demographic in the country with one of the biggest and busiest Emergency Departments that excels in teaching on a national level. We are lucky to have an incredible Cardio-Respiratory tertiary centre at Glenfield Hospital on top of the other outstanding departments. With all this on the doorstep of a friendly and empowering medical school it was not a difficult to decision to come here to study and start my career."
