Starting as a 5th Year Medical Student – Dionne

Oxford Medical Junior Doctor Panel member Dionne shares her experiences of starting as a 5th Year Medical Student in paediatrics and neonatal care. This includes the moments she’s enjoyed most, some key learning points and the teaching methods used by doctors supporting her development that have had greatest benefit. Essential viewing with key insights for any doctor involved in teaching medical students, either formally or informally.


Our Junior Doctor Panel is a small group of medical students and junior doctors working in different roles who share their experiences with us and with you via blog-posts and webcasts which we include on our website and social media accounts. In return, we support them with their development. Click here to find out more about the Junior Doctor Panel.
