Training for General Practitioners (GPs)

As the first point of contact for residents on the management of their health care needs, NUHS has curated training programmes for your professional development.

Our regular Continuing Medical Education (CME) and Training series will provide you with information on managing chronic disease complications of your patients and also give you an insight into the care services available at NUHS and its institutions should you need to refer your patients for specialist care. If you are unable to participate in the CME sessions listed below, you can also access the recorded sessions on the NUHS Education Support and Training Hub (NEST), where you will also find useful links and resources for patient care in a GP setting.

For feedback or enquiries, please email us at [email protected].
