Hide AdDr Asif Khan has become a partner after working as a salaried GP in Leicester.
The GP says it has been a ‘great transition’ taking on the role to get more involved in the running of the practice.
He said: “A couple of my GP colleagues were already working as partners here so they gave me very positive feedback about Lakeside which is a huge organisation. The team welcomed me on board. I am still new to the practice and partnership and going through quite a few things, understanding the practice and how this works, participating in the meetings here. It is still new, and it will take me time to develop into my partner role.

I am also a clinical supervisor and as this is a large training practice I am happy to help out in that way as well. The team here is so friendly and it has been a great transition for me. I wanted to progress, not just to benefit my career and the practice, but also the patient population as well and I am really looking forward to making a difference where I can.”
Dr Khan qualified in 2000, practicing different surgical specialities before GP training, joining the Cottingham Road practice from Leicester.
