Dr Deborah Rose is the BM5 Programme Lead and Director of Primary Care Teaching, within Medicine at the University of Southampton.

Students spend time learning in General Practice in all but one year of our BM Programme curricula. To promote GP as a speciality and career choice we have introduced a new essay prize sponsored by Wessex RCGP.

After graduating from Nottingham University Medical School in 1992, Deborah completed her GP training in 1996, since then she has been a GP Principal in South Yorkshire, a salaried GP, a locum, including Out of Hours work, and now works as a retained GP in a local city Practice.

Enthused by teaching time she had with GP Registrars, she became a GP trainer in 2004. On moving to Southampton in 2005 she started her involvement in undergraduate medical education in, initially as a seminar leader, progressing to course coordination and small group teaching within the BM4 graduate entry programme in 2006. After increasing her course coordination roles she developed an interest in undergraduate medical curricula and various aspects of student assessment. In her current main role, overseeing the Primary Care teaching team, she is keen to develop the educational opportunities that the recent expansion of the speciality in the curriculum affords our students and teachers.
