Information for GPs

saturday seminars

The Saturday Seminars are occasional half-day educational meetings for general practitioners. Held on site in St.Bede’s Conference Centre, they offer GPs the opportunity to hear and discuss the latest medical and surgical developments in a relaxed and friendly environment. In the course of the morning, three or four consultants will give presentations or lead discussions on a variety of topics of interest to GPs. Meetings conclude around 12.45pm and lunch is provided.
