The General Practice (GP) National Recruitment Office

Health Education England working across Thames Valley

DID YOU KNOW… that 80% of all trainers in the HE Thames Valley have the Certificate in Medical Education? The HETV also incorporates the largest “new town” in England which also happens to be one of the fastest growing urban areas in Europe – Milton Keynes!

Health Education Thames Valley is composed of three counties, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire. We have seven vocational training schemes covering the Chilterns and Cotswolds – Aylesbury & Wycombe, Banbury, Milton Keynes, Oxford, Reading & Newbury and Windsor. We have a range of training practices that serve both very rural areas and inner cities. It is a popular place to train, not only because of the high standard of training practices, but also the easy access to all other parts of the country.

Whether you want to work and live in the countryside or in the city, both options are available in HE Thames Valley.
