Northern Deanery

Deanery Information

At the Northern Deanery our commitment to our trainees is simple - we will offer you the highest quality training, supervision and support. We cover the North East of England and North Cumbria, which is a beautiful and vibrant area. The quality of life is excellent, the cost of living is low and we have some of the most beautiful cities, coasts and countryside in the UK.

We work with eleven acute trusts (which include two specialist trusts providing mental health and learning disabilities services), 13 primary care trusts, 196 general practice training practices and 60 dental training practices.

People who train with us get much more than just high quality training. In addition to our first-class exam preparation, excellent clinical and academic supervision and the breadth of experience offered, we offer a high calibre of personal support.

You'll gain a breadth of experience in selected and supervised hospital posts throughout the area in large university acute hospitals, community hospitals and district general hospitals to ensure you get the training you need to give you a rewarding future career. Within these areas you'll have the opportunity to work with nationally and internationally-recognised clinicians and leaders.

We create well-rounded doctors who are ready to become consultants through our leadership and development programmes - and the majority of our trainees secure local consultant posts.
