We have the pleasure of welcoming our guest Dr Rob Chapple. Dr Chapple went to Sheffield Medical School 40 years ago and is soon to retire. He is currently Senior Partner at St Georges Surgery at St Pauls Medical Centre in Cheltenham. He qualified in 1986 and spent 4 years working in Hospital before doing his General Practice training. At the end of this he did 3 years Occupational Medicine with Unilever, Vauxhall Motors and STW and was an Honorary Lecturer at Birmingham University. Listening to his heart however he decided to return to his first love, Clinical Medicine and General Practice, and he joined St Georges Surgery in January 1995, where he has been ever since.
