"Well done to those behind the conference, it was world class and thoroughly worthwhile. I have taken back so many tips and ideas to practice that I will struggle to implement them all before next years conference."

"I feel totally invigorated professionally and personally after the event."

"I am proud to be a member of a college with such inspiring senior / members. Good to be reminded of the bigger picutre of our role/ job."

"The highlight was the high quality of the parallel sessions and the excellent work shown from general practice."

"I will be taking away so many ideas and some much increased understanding."

"It is wonderful to see the number of GPs involved - both in running it and attending it. An impressive event and hopefully it will continue to increase in popularity with colleagues."

"Walking away being proud to be a GP!"
