This is really good. It’s great seeing what it’s like being a GP in a pandemic. It’ll be such an interesting watch when life normalises (whatever that’ll be). Really enjoy watching your videos. Well done
Hey! Thanks so much for your comment and glad you enjoyed the video! You might be interested in the other day in the life vlogs too! You can check them out in the playlist here- Day In The Life/VLOGS: th-cam.com/play/PLuuUB2zS7neeSSJ9S9Rav-Ml3GYJaZKMr.html
Thank you so much for watching and for your amazing feedback! Would anything else help you to have an insight? Any other videos you'd like to see/would be useful to you?
Awesome video as always. Really love the effort in making and editing the videos. Thank you for showing us your routine and I guess after the whole pandemic there might be some slight changes, would love to see that.🙂
Thanks so much for watching, commenting and ultimately enjoying the video! Yes I always work hard on my videos but especially this one, so it means a lot when you guys tell me you've enjoyed it! I can definitely do an update when things eventually settle down!
Lol the room is used by other doctors as I'm not there full time. I'm not sure I would decorate it even if i was there full time! Lol there are some Christmas cards now though! Lol
I was looking forward to this so much and I wasn't disappointed. It was brilliant. I am going to join your Surgery. By the way you look like a cute dandelion flower in your hood. I would spot you anywhere .
Hey doctor .... my Q is for how long can One stay in uk at non training post I mean if one wants to work as non trainee for 3-4 yers is that allowed ? Or if one wants to continue working after completing gp training is that allowed for imgs or they will have to go back to their countries immediately once they complete their training ? Plz reply
Hi! Thanks for watching and for your question! I've got a lot of information in this video here-th-cam.com/video/OvhEfOSh3mQ/w-d-xo.html However yes you can work indefinitely as a non trainee although there is no progression with that route... In terms of stay you'll need to ensure you have all necessary documents so you can live and work in the UK. Hope that helps!
@@Grace-lu9cp 5 years med school, 2 years foundation, 3 years GP. So if you start uni at 18 and no delays you'd be done by 28! ;) If you take a few years out and with life events you could be around 30-33.
Hi! Thanks for watching and your comment! Please check out my video on my home page 'how much do GPs earn'. It varies a lot but decent salary otherwise.
Omg must be a nightmare when ppl ask you what you do and asking for medical advice "I'm a gp" "Oh, you know I keep getting stomach aches after I eat, do you know what that is?" lol Curious, do lots of ppl come in having self-diagnosed through Dr Google? Or really freaked out by Dr Google? You've got such a calming and supportive attitude, your patients are super lucky to have your as their gp 😊 Is a bugger to have so many appts by phone atm, seeing a Dr face to face has such a powerful effect
Hi! Thanks for watching and for your kind comments! It varies, but I don't actually get a lot of queries for medical advice! Yes I do miss the traditional way of working, but we do still see patients face to face as GPs!

The office looks functional.
Makes me feel tense when no flowers, decorations are in a clinic

Wow. Your work hours are " looonng"
Do some GPs do the regular 9-5?
Most GPs will do some combination of long and short days. I do 2 long days and 1 short. There are also extended hours which are even longer days!
Is it possible for a GP to work only for 2 to 3 days per week ?
So in rest of the day he can do something else like teaching !
Hi! Thanks for watching! Yes definitely!
Hi. I was just wondering. What age did you become a Gp. Love your videos by the way
Thank you for your lovely comment! Can I ask why? Do you want to know the earliest age you could become a GP?
@@DrPBaptiste thank you for replying. Yes. I was just wondering in general. What age is the earliest and or average

How long have you been a gp?
Hello, thank you for watching and commenting! I have been a GP since 2019! Are you training to become a GP?
