Meet The Speaker: Dr Roger Neighbour

OBE MA DSc FRCGP FRCP FRACGP

Roger Neighbour qualified from King’s College, Cambridge and St Thomas’ Hospital. After vocational training in Watford he became a GP in Abbots Langley, Hertfordshire from 1974 to 2003.

He was a trainer and course organiser with the Watford Vocational Training Scheme for many years, an MRCGP examiner for 20 years, and Convenor of the RCGP’s Panel of Examiners from 1997 to 2002. In 2003 he was elected President of the Royal College of General Practitioners for a three year term.

An interest in the psychology of the doctor-patient relationship and of the trainer-trainee relationship led Roger to write ‘The Inner Consultation’ (1987, 2nd ed. 2005), ‘The Inner Apprentice’ (1992, 2nd ed. 2005), and ‘The Inner Physician’ (2016), which explores the contribution of a doctor’s non-professional self to the clinical process. His next book ‘Consulting in a nutshell’ will be published later this year.

Now retired from clinical practice, Roger continues to write, teach and lecture in the UK and worldwide on consulting skills and general practice. In 2011 he was awarded an OBE for services to medical education. He enjoys playing the violin to semi-professional standard and spending time at his second home in Normandy.
