Trainee Stories
Find out from trainees about Scottish Medical Training
We know you would rather hear about what it's like to train in Scotland from the experts - doctors already in training here.
We've filmed a few across the regions and specialities and if you have any questions, please contact them using the link below the video - they are happy to answer you. Given that they are working doctors, who might be on nights, please allow a couple of days for responses.
Remember you can follow us at https://twitter.com/scotmedtraining as well, feel free to ask questions about applications and we'll do our best to find the answer for you.
