Members’ views are vitally important to this review, and we are keen to hear from as many as possible, both from those who reside in the UK and those who are overseas. ...

"This strategic document is really setting, if you like, guiderails for where we see the College going over this next period..." In our latest podcast, our Chief Executive, Jo Revill speaks with the College's President, Camilla Kingdon, about our strategy for the next three years.

Dr Camilla Kingdon responds to new GMC targets to eliminate disproportionate complaints from employers about ethnic minority doctors and eradicate disadvantage and discrimination in medical education and training.
