The Phoenix Programme has been offering support to newly qualified GPs in Nottinghamshire since August 2019. We officially launched our New to Practice Fellowship Scheme in February 2021. We currently have over 70 New to Practice GP fellows and our numbers are growing.

Feedback from current fellows includes:

• Great to have sessions where we could share our experiences
• Very friendly approach, interactive and fun
• A good chance to meet peers and think beyond my GP clinic room, thank you
• Mentoring has been an invaluable outlet

You can listen to one of our fellows’ experiences on this video clip.
