This week heralds the start of the new term and a return to weekly podcasts, and we are incredibly privileged to be joined by Dr Naj Seedat; GP Principal and Partner at a large practice in Ilford, northeast London, LMC Board member, GP appraiser and one of the founding fathers of his local GP federation. In this episode, Naj and Ben discuss the challenges faced by those new to GP partnership; the key considerations for those debating whether or not to make the leap into partnership, the experiences of both old hands and those who are just starting out, partnership in the context of the ever evolving primary care landscape, the rewards of partnership and why the New to General Practice Partnership Programme Naj and Ben are launching can be instrumental in shaping and supporting the journey to partnership, and beyond.
