In the NHS, training occurs in nearly all our hospitals, and this is part of the NHS service model. As the shortage of doctors is increasingly recognised, so has the pull from remote, rural and smaller places to large urban centres. We discuss whether this is inevitable and what else could be done to ensure equitable access to healthcare for all, by making better use of the excellent clinical training the UK has in place in smaller as well as larger centres.
