This is not just another work experience webinar.
This is a powerful, insight-led session designed to help aspiring medical students understand what primary care really is, how it fits into the wider NHS, and how to use work experience meaningfully in medical school interviews.
Led by Dr Rizvia Khan FRCGP,
NHE GP, Senior NHSE leader, former medical school interviewer, Medical Examiner, AI Medical Consultant, Lead Appraiser, Expedition and Portfolio doctor, this session will give students a rare insight into the world of general practice, portfolio careers, patient-centred care, leadership, multidisciplinary working and the future of primary care.
Dr Khan will take students beyond the usual “what did you see?” approach to work experience and show them how to think, reflect, and speak about their experiences in a way that is mature, authentic and interview-ready.

Why this webinar is different-
This session will be like no other work experience session you will attend.
Dr Rizvia Khan, as a PRACTICING GP, will let students into the real world of general practice, not just as a GP, but as a portfolio doctor with experience across clinical care, NHS leadership, education, appraisal, admissions and workforce development.
Students will gain insight into how doctors think, how the NHS works, how patients are supported across systems, and how to reflect in a way that genuinely strengthens their medical school application.
With an additional focus on the future of general practice, health technology, portfolio careers and the changing face of medicine, this may be one of the most far-reaching and powerful work experience opportunities available to aspiring medical students.
Suitable for
- Year 10, 11 and 12 students considering medicine
- Medical school applicants preparing for personal statements
- Students wanting to strengthen interview answers
- Anyone who wants to understand primary care, the NHS and the future of general practice
Key Takeaway
By the end of this webinar, students will not only understand primary care better, they will know how to reflect on it, talk about it at interviews and use it effectively in their medical school journey.
