MRCP PACES Courses
The Whittington PACES Course has been running since the 1990s and has helped many candidates successfully pass the clinical PACES examination. This is a 3 day course in total. The first day is an Ethics and Communications Course. The second and third days are the Clinical Course. The PACES course is organised by Consultant Physicians Dr Lok Yap and Dr Ihuoma Wamuo. We also have many experienced MRCP examiners teaching on the course as the Whittington Hospital has a strong record in post graduate medical education.
We have had excellent feedback for the course by the candidates who have attended.
