About this listen

What does it take to turn medical students into doctors? In this episode, Dr Kim Walker is joined by Dr Craig Brown (Deputy Year 5 Lead and Simulation Lead) and Dr Owen Dempsey (Year 5 Lead and CBL Lead) to unpack what learning looks like in the final stages of Aberdeen’s MBChB programme.

They discuss the role of year 5 as a true "apprenticeship year," how simulation helps develop clinical reasoning, and how NHS clinicians—new or experienced—can support students in becoming confident, capable, and safe doctors.

Key Topics:
- Year 5 as an experiential, apprenticeship-style year
- Using simulation to build confidence and clinical reasoning
- Feedback, inclusion, and the culture of team-based learning
- How clinicians can support and get involved—from OSCEs to electives
