Really excellent course. I’d done the RCGP one at the RC of Surgeons in Edinburgh a number of years ago and, like Mike said, was one of the 80% who then didn’t do an minor surgery afterwards, but with Mike and Duncan (aided by Tom) I felt that the teaching on the Medical Skills Course was excellent, detailed, with the right level of interaction and fun. The “test” was not scary at all and I felt very supported. Like some weird analogy with a dermal suture I went from being enthusiastic to more reticent with my previous RCS Edinburgh course, whereas with Mike and Duncan’s course I might have been initially worried but became much more enthused and confident about the potential for doing minor surgery by the end.
