"I'm glad to say that I was in the initial group of ROs being trained when revalidation was first introduced, and now I'm back in the role to succeed the excellent Jonathan Brooks. It is great to continue to work with Jonathan in his role as mentor.
 
I understand the particular pressures around appraisal for locums, and I'll do my best to ensure that the processesat Holt Doctorsare practical and help enhance your career goals.
