The Training Website For Everyone, Not Just Bradford

Our users also include other health professionals – both qualified and in training – such as Associate Physicians, ANPs, Medical & Nursing Students. Our fundamental belief is about openly and freely sharing knowledge to learn and develop with each other. Feel free to use the information (as long as not commercial). We welcome educational material from all our users (providing it is copyright free). Dr Ramesh Mehay, Bradford, UK. (bradfordvts@gmail.com)

Did you know: Bradford VTS doesn’t get much money from large external sources. In fact, a lot of the funding comes out of our own pocket and contributions from kind people – mostly your trainers.
We try to keep the site as FREE as possible. Occasionally we ask for money for the odd resource. We rely on this bit of money to help fund us. We don’t ask for much as you can see (compare it to the 100s you pay for courses). We hope you think we are reasonable and fair.
Please, please, please contribute. It is an unfortunate fact that most of our funding comes from GP trainers and very little from Trainees. If you would like to change this, then please click on the contribution page here.
Bradford VTS was created in 2002 for one main reason – to simply create a platform where we can share ideas, knowledge and skills so that we can co-create to produce wonderful new things effortlessly. We have stood the test of time… Bradford VTS is made with ❤ by Dr Ramesh Mehay and others, often in our spare time.

remember the past
Since 2001
Yes, that’s right. The Bradford VTS website has been helping GP Trainees and Trainers since 2001. If you want to take a look at an early version (2004) of our website, click here.
The aim of this website has always been…
to facilitate the development of doctors who are reflective practitioners.
