Scotland Deanery

We are the Scotland Deanery, working in partnership with Health Boards and GP Surgeries to train doctors and dentists to be the senior clinicians we need to treat Scotland's people in the future. Our job is to ensure that these doctors and dentists in training are given the right opportunities and experience to equip them to be highly effective and capable practitioners delivering the best care possible.
