General Practice (ICSM): Vice Chair

Hi everyone, my name is Sruthi (4th year medic) and I would love to be Vice Chair for GP Society next year.

Over the past few years, I feel priveleged to have had the opportunity to participate in many of the fantastic events this society has put on - ranging from helpful OSCE tutorials to conferences which have helped broaden my understanding of the speciality. Through these events and my experiences on placements in general practice, I have developed a strong interest in general practice as a speciality.

Having held the roles of IDSoc Chair and IDSoc Early Years Officer in the past, I believe I have been able to develop the organisational, teamwork and leadership skills required for the role of Vice Chair for GP Society.

I would love to work with other members of the committee next year to support the growth of this society! My goals for the next year would include:

To continue and expand on educational series such as OSCE and PACES teaching
To expand on academic support through updating the existing notebank and release of weekly SBAs
To continue the annual GP Society conference, expanding this to include interactive workshops
To introduce more social events to enrich the student experience and encourage collaborative learning

Thank you!
