We read with great interest the article by Bansal et al1 on incorporating GP facilitated teaching on clinical placements. We thought it to be a thought provoking and innovative approach. As medical students, we appreciate that the course being vast means students are simply unable to cover all specialties during their degree2 – this intervention exposes students to teaching scenarios and specialties they may otherwise not have had exposure to. However, we believe certain factors need addressing.
