HMR Primary Care Academy

An Institution for the Advancement of Primary Care, it is the vision of Dr Gill Tonge a GP in Middleton.

We launched in September 2018 to focus on training, education, workforce development and research across the entire primary care workforce in HMR.

We aim to create and provide new opportunities for people working in primary care and entering primary care, to shape, inform and influence the career opportunities and environment they would like to work in.
