As a resident physician with us, you will work with both acute and planned patient consultations, where the broad general practitioner assignment is a base. We offer chat, video visits, and other digital contacts through Always Open. The work is varied and independent, and you will meet patients of all ages. The assignment includes supervision for 1 hour per week with a designated supervisor and other times with an “open door” for supervision when needed. Every week we have physician meetings where common questions and topics are discussed. The study director plays an important role in planning and organizing courses and rotations.
