A 2-week medical work experience course with us in London is the most comprehensive experience we offer. By attending for 2-weeks, you’ll get to experience many different world-class hospitals and gain the most work experience possible for your medical school applications. On our 2-week hospital placements, we get many UK and international students, so it’s always a wonderful atmosphere and the best preparation for your future medical career.
London has something for everyone; all tastes, budgets and interests. Blessed with modern buildings that sit seamlessly with truly historical ones, it’s hard not to be impressed by London and the thriving city it has become. London is really a collection of neighbourhoods, all knitted together and packed full of culture, entertainment and fun, with surprises at every junction. Home to over 40,000 shops, it’s a shopping mecca whilst also being one of the greenest cities on earth with fabulous parks and gardens dotted all over the city.
Our staff team can collect you from either London Heathrow Airport or Kings Cross Railway station. If it works better for you, you can choose to arrive directly at the accommodation.
Once you have settled into your room, we will gather for a brief welcome session, after which we will have our first meal together.
After you have enrolled on our hospital work experience course, you’ll gain access to your Premed Portal webpage, where you can read more extensive project notes and also let us know how you would like to meet up with the team.
At Premed Projects, we strive to ensure your stay is truly unforgettable. We believe that sharing the experience with fellow students who have similar interests is an essential aspect of the course. We understand that after a rigorous day at the medical school or hospital, you would want to unwind and feel at ease.
We have hosted medical projects in London for several years now, and we find it an ideal base for the course.
All Premed Project accommodation is kitted out to ensure you have everything you need during your stay with us. On our London hospital placement course, we’ve some really stylish accommodation awaiting you. You’ll have a safe and secure space to call your own during your project with us.
All of our rooms are shared between 2 students, with your own private ensuite bathroom, providing you with everything you need for a good night’s sleep.
We also have lots of communal space too, making for a great atmosphere. All rooms are comfortably furnished, so you can be sure your free time outside your hospital placement is going to be every bit as enjoyable as your time spent within the hospitals.
Downstairs you’ll find lots of chill-out areas and study areas, too, perfect for that UCAT cramming. During your stay, you have access to:
Start your day with breakfast every morning, all included in the project. From fresh fruit and pastries to cereals and juices, we have an array of options available for you to choose from. Breakfast is served every day from 07:30 am onwards.
During the week we have a variety of food options for students, all included in the project cost. From Katsu curries, superfood salads, and duck spring rolls to ravioli and endless pizza choices, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. For our evening meals we’ll either visit a different restaurant, have private caterers attend the accommodation or order a group takeaway. It’s a great way to finish each day as a group.
We understand that some individuals may have specific dietary needs and we are happy to accommodate them. Whether you require halal food, vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free options, we have a variety of choices available at every mealtime to ensure you find a suitable option.
During the weekdays, you can have your lunch at the hospital’s cafeteria if you are working there, or at the student union if you are attending med school on that day. On some days we also arrange a delicious buffet lunch for you, perfect for any aspiring medical student.
If you’re attending a 2-week course, you can really make the most of being in London and will get the chance to also have some free time. Your middle weekend is spare time, so why not explore with your fellow students and go and see London.
Approximately two weeks before your experience begins, we will send you your exact timetable so you know what you’ll be doing each day.
To give you an idea of what to expect, here’s an example of how your week will be structured while you’re with us:
Annie is the friendly leader of our UK team! Throughout your project, you’ll have a team of dedicated project leaders to assist you, along with a night manager who’s on-site all evening to ensure your comfort. Plus, there’s 24-hour security and CCTV at the accommodation, so you can relax knowing you’re well taken care of. Our number one priority is that you are safe and secure during your time with us and our head office is in constant contact with all our staff teams running the projects. Your Programme Managers will regularly update us on what you’re up to during the course. If parents want to get in touch with us, we have an emergency contact number that is monitored around-the-clock.
We won’t cramp your style too much, and you’ll have plenty of time to socialise with your fellow students. But rest assured, there’s always someone around to ensure you have a safe, stress-free experience, no matter where you turn. Our goal is to let you focus on your hospital work experience while we handle the rest. We like to think of ourselves as a pretty cool bunch!
