Abstract:
Within this piece, we discuss the benefits and challenges of being a doctor in the pure general internal (GIM) medicine training programme within the NHS. We argue that having more resident doctors training in GIM within the NHS would provide a wonderful learning opportunity and a sustainable approach to the increasingly multimorbid patient cohort. It is also a discussion of the experience applying for and training within the new GIM curriculum. We discuss some of the future workstreams and consultant opportunities that may be available and compare single CCT GIM with other training courses. As the Royal College of Physicians is currently encouraging the role of the generalist within medical practice in the NHS, it is hoped that this piece may encourage further discussion on this topic.
