Learning Together
A GP's journey into AI — practical insights for busy clinicians who want to understand and use AI tools safely in their practice.
Not a formal course. Not another certification. Just one GP sharing what I'm learning, in plain English, as I explore these tools in my own practice.
Why "Learning Together"?
AI is moving fast. Too fast for most of us to keep up while managing full-time clinical work. But that doesn't mean we should ignore it — our patients certainly aren't.
I'm not an AI expert. I'm a GP who's been curious enough to start exploring these tools, and careful enough to think about how they fit into clinical practice safely.
This resource is my attempt to share what I'm learning — the useful bits, the pitfalls, and the questions we should all be asking.
The Philosophy
"Pass it on."
The best medical education happens when we share what we know. I've learned from countless colleagues over 29 years — this is my way of passing it forward.
