“Excellent course, good overview of surgical technique for minor skin operations.”

“Excellent course run by supportive, approachable staff. I learnt a lot from this course and feel it covered both the theoretical and practice aspects of minor surgery with enough time to practice practical procedures. I now feel more confident developing this skill.”

“Really good course Lots of content and resources Speakers were east to approach and ask questions/ ask for help The only thing is that with regards to practical experience it would be nice if the speakers went around the room to ensure everyone was confident. I had to put my hand up and I felt a bit embarrassed to do so.”

“I went on this course 3years ago. Having attended again I was surprised to see have developed the course has become. The team went out of their way to make it covid safe. I was also impressed how seamless the course was using various tech to illustrate live techniques on camera and real time learning questionnaire. This course is extremely entertaining and enjoyable. Highly Recommended!”

“The course was very good and practical. The provisions made due to Covid19 were excellent. More time using the models would have been helpful - especially if the instructors stayed with the models to help us. Emma the physio and the GP were really supportive and helpful. The other presenter (sorry I can't remember his name) seemed quite distracted during the practical sessions - checking his mobile and not really very willing to engage as readily as the other two. I realise he may have had a good reason to check his phone - but it then put more pressure on the other two to help”

“I thought the content of the course was very good. It was mainly geared for primary care. Maybe a secondary care course for nurses would be good.”

“Well balanced course between slides and practical Didn't over advertise the use of joint injections versus exercises and self-help The models to practice on do however bear little resemblance to reality. Wouldn't it be more helpful to use the fake needles (as in the video) to get a feel of the actual anatomy?”

“The course overall was really good and I would recommend. The quality of the speakers was high - I think Mike was clearest and the sound quality for the others was not so good. The venue was great - nice size, healthy options for food which were appreciated, good temp, loos ok, free parking, easy to get to with plenty of hotels available - I would love to come back to this venue again and again. The course was a good mix of practical skills and useful info. Personally I felt it would be better split into those people wanting to do basic skills in GP eg what is ok on DES, suturing techniques, cysts, lipomas etc and joint injections. with more practical experience. and a second day on skin lesions and dematoscopy. I felt the cautery/electro cautery might be better placed for those wanting to extend their scope as the equipment is expensive and most GPs wouldn't have access to this for a DES for minor ops. overall it was engaging and enjoyable. I did worry there may be a few who didnt grasp basic concepts who might then go on to practice as the DOPS assessment and MCQs were pretty informal.”

“Good presenters and group size. Helpful presentations and practice on shoulders, lower limb and upper limb. Would have liked to have had a bit more information about logistics of doing joint injection within GP surgery - time needed to assess what injection is needed, time and resources needed to do injection, dedicated joint injection clinics or ad hoc during surgeries. Also more information about common pitfalls of joint injections in GP surgery setting. Perhaps some case studies would have helped. I will be starting to do joint injections as a result of this course. Thank you or giving me the confidence to do this.”

“Pleased with content and presentation of course. Could have covered areas such as Tenosynovitis / metatarsalgia which were not touched.”

“The course was very informative, day 1 was more targeted to my needs as I was looking to learn more minor surgery skills with suturing and wounds and lumps and bumps. Day 2 - unfortunately was not as good, as a GP I am already aware of melanoma, but understand the need to cover this. Could have been more quiz based and brief. The shoulder joint station, was not as good as the hand and elbow station. It could be improved by showing more videos and giving more time to what we were doing, as we were rushed, and still finished early. Maybe some equipment to try out the technique of cryotherapy would have been interesting. The course organisers present, very approachable and helpful. Overall a great course and good value for money.”

“A very comprehensive yet friendly and informal course covering all minor surgical procedures relevant for primary care. The material covered and practical workshops on Day 1 were very useful and relevant. Plenty of time allocated for practising suture techniques. Day 2 injection workshops covered numerous procedures now rarely recommended in primary care and felt less useful with limited opportunity to practice on mannequins. For me a single longer day focusing just on all of the surgical techniques and the option of attending a second day covering common MSK conditions and joint and soft tissue injections would have been preferable. I would recommend to colleagues.”

“Well presented in small groups of around 20, rotating around 3 workshops covering shoulders, hips & knees, and finally hand (de quervains, carpal tunnel, trigger finger, 1st CMC joint). They also gave good tips on examinations prior to injection and used models for practice. They have a great online handbook and video resources to aid learning before/after the course”
