About the Somerset Scheme
You will be placed in supportive practices in the beautiful West Country under the guidance and leadership of an engaged and supportive TPD. You will work with enthusiastic, experienced and highly skilled Educational Supervisors who will be your guides and mentors through your FD year. The study days will give you a chance to not only learn from speakers who are leaders in their field, but also a chance to form friendships, share experiences and learn from your peers. Being in the beautiful West Country gives you plenty of opportunity to explore the outdoors be it hiking in the Somerset hills or picnics on the beach. The only downside to being amidst all this natural beauty is the limited availability of public transport and while FDs have managed very successfully without, having a car will definitely make life easy. I look forward to welcoming you to the Somerset Scheme for a fantastic start to what will be a fulfilling and exciting career in dentistry.
Main Study Day Venue
Study days will be held at various venues. FDs are advised to check their scheme timetable.
