National Medical Students’ Group

 Are you sometimes PUZZLED by patients? INTRIGUED by your interactions? CONFUSED by your consultants’ reactions?

If so then we would like to offer you the opportunity to join a Balint group with medical students from all over the UK to continue exploring these ideas. The group is open to any clinical medical student who has had some experience of being in a Balint group, either through their university or at a Balint Society supported event.

Previous students have found that the group has given them:

 

An improved understanding and appreciation of the doctor-patient relationship

The opportunity to build relationships with peers to share experiences

An awareness of some of the challenges that might be faced as a doctor

Increased confidence in presenting cases

 

The group currently runs from 8pm – 9pm on Tuesday evenings via Zoom

There are 3-4 meetings every term on the third Tuesday of the month the next one being 16th January 2024.
