    Most patients consulting with a general practitioner trainer and a vocational trainee had neutral reactions. While some preferred seeing two doctors, many preferred their usual solo consultation, with positive feedback outweighing negative comments.

    Area of Science:

    • General Practice
    • Medical Education
    • Patient Experience

    Background:

    • Patient consultations are a cornerstone of general practice.
    • The dynamics of dual consultations involving a trainer and trainee are not well-documented.
    • Understanding patient perspectives is crucial for optimizing training environments.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate patient reactions to consultations involving a general practitioner trainer and a vocational trainee.
    • To assess patient preferences for dual versus solo consultations.
    • To gather qualitative feedback on the dual consultation experience.

    Main Methods:

    • A study involving 250 patients consulting with a general practitioner trainer and a vocational trainee simultaneously.
    • Collection of patient feedback on their experience and preferences.

  • Analysis of patient statements, categorizing them as favorable or adverse.

    • Main Results:

    • Over 80% of patients reported neutral reactions to the dual consultation format.
    • Remaining patients were nearly equally divided between preferring two doctors or their usual solo consultation.
    • Favorable patient comments significantly outnumbered adverse comments (approximately 10:1 ratio).

    Conclusions:

    • The dual consultation model involving a trainer and trainee is generally well-received by patients.
    • Patient preferences vary, with a significant portion content with solo consultations.
    • Further research should consider potential patient desire to please healthcare providers when interpreting feedback.
