Cairnsmore Medical Practice is an accredited training practice with Glasgow University and Dundee University for Doctors at different stages of their career. REGISTRARS These are qualified doctors who are doing their General Practice Speciality Training (GPST) over 3 or 4 years. They will spend 18 months of their training with us here at Cairnsmore Medical Practice and the rest of their time in a hospital setting. Our current Registrars are Dr E Moses and Dr J Acheson. FY2 Foundation Year 2 Doctors are also qualified but have yet to choose their preferred speciality. FY2's spend four months with us before going on to train in their field of expertise, many of which choose General Practice. Our next FY2 from August is Dr Patsy Fingland. UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS Cairnsmore Medical Practice has a long standing relationship with Glasgow University and Dundee University for providing placement experience for 4th or 5th year medical students. These students spend 5 weeks with us in General Practice.
