Sophie experienced life as a doctor during a placement on the Medics Academy, which was based at North Devon District Hospital.

Biography

From this wonderful opportunity that this 10 week programme has provided me with, I truly enhanced my knowledge of how an NHS hospital functions. One of the best things which I have experienced during the placement is comforting a patient when they were going through a lumbar puncture. This experience has also helped develop my inter-personal skills and gave me an insight into the true role of a doctor.
