<p id="yui_3_17_2_1_1626794164408_510" class="">Welcome to the WellMedic AKT podcast. I am your host Dr Sham Mahmood. Join me in this mini-series as we go through a number of MRCGP AKT scenarios that will focus on the application of your knowledge.</p> Our AKT podcast has been a massive success amongst GP trainees in the U.K. and as far as Australia! Our AKT podcast has had over 12,000 listeners in its very first year! <p class="">After working closely with 1,000 GP trainees! have found that trainees focus very heavily on consuming content that is topic-based. It would be a real waste of my time and yours if I was to talk you through each guideline.</p> <p class="">My aim is to talk you through a more complex scenario within each AKT podcast episode, where you will have to look at the application of your knowledge, but also some of the finer details covered within the guidelines. Which is the best way to revise for your MRCGP AKT.</p> <p class="">This AKT podcast is hosted by WellMedic.co.uk, WellMedic is a platform that focuses on the wellbeing of doctors across the UK. As a founder of WellMedic, I have developed online courses to help GP trainees PASS the AKT.</p> If you'd like me to cover a specific condition or symptom taken from the RCGP curriculum guide, please get in touch via our contact form. I will endeavour to create content that is specific to your needs as a GP trainee taking the MRCGP AKT.
