About the speaker
Dr Sangeeta Kulkarni
Consultant Physician, Care of Elderly, Clinical Lead for frailty, Associate director of Medical Education
I have had the privilege of completing graduate and post graduate training from University of Pune, India. Despite the widely differing geographical, cultural and academic differences it provided a firm foundation for my specialist training in Geriatrics and GIM in Wessex Deanery. I joined Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust as a Consultant in Jan 2010. My sub specialty interests are Movement Disorders and Frailty. I am the clinical Lead for Frailty Services at GHFT and have helped set up the front door frailty assessment services at Gloucester Royal Hospital.
Frailty Assessment Service has been operating for last 11 years. It functions as a multi professional unit with a vibrant training and learning environment. It is heart warming to see our Trainees return to our services as senior decision makers.
Clinical experience on the Frailty Assessment Service has shaped my educator role. I am involved in education and training of Doctors in training, Physician associates, Nurse practitioners and pharmacists. I am involved in supporting International Medical Graduates within Gloucestershire Hospitals and have coordinated their induction and wellbeing programme over last 3 years. I see my role as an Associate Director of Medical Education over last 3 years as an extension of all of the above.
