''My confidence has improved massively over my placement with BARDOC. I was regularly taking histories, completing observations, and examining patients on both home visits and in out of hours clinics. This helped me see a variety of conditions which greatly improved my clinical knowledge. Presenting these cases to my supervising GP and discussing management plans provided plenty of opportunities for learning, as well as helping my communication skills develop. I also attended teaching sessions during my placement which were useful refreshers on common problems seen in general practice. I thoroughly enjoyed my placement in general practice with BARDOC.''
''This has honestly been the best GP experience I have had. I have been able to experience a wide range of services BARDOC offers such as: AVS home visits, NWAS triage, booking an ambulance and seeing patients at the Phoenix, Whitehall St, Moorgate and Bolton. From understanding what BARDOC entails, seeing patients, understanding EMIS, learning about local services, BARDOC has not fallen short on providing students with a great experience.''
''The agility of the team has been highly effective, largely due to Munazza’s ‘can do’ attitude, not only ensuring that that the programme was delivered to time but to a high professional standard. Munazza has built relationships with Council officers and partner organisations which has enabled testing provision in highly varied settings, engaging with a wide range of diverse communities. Not least, Munazza has taken the lead for training and coordinating the delivery of testing via military colleagues. It has been a pleasure to get to know and work with Munazza, and I hope that we will do so again in the future.''
