A General Medical Council (GMC) report highlights that health services across the UK must adapt to rapid changes in how doctors are choosing to progress their careers.  Rising numbers of doctors are moving away from the traditional postgraduate training model and instead choosing increased flexibility and less linear career pathways. The GMC’s The state of medical education and practice: workforce report 2023 says that instead of viewing this changing landscape as a threat to workforce stability, it could in fact help to reduce burnout and dissatisfaction, improve work-life balance, support informed career decisions and increase the likelihood of doctors remaining in UK practice.
