Clinical Supervision / Mentorship
For GMC/GDC/NMC/HCPC registered clinicians only
I offer clinical supervision and mentorship for registered clinicians working in medical aesthetics who wish to build confidence, strengthen clinical decision-making, and embed safe practice through education, observation, and—where appropriate—supervised clinical sessions.
Mentorship and supervision are educational in nature.
Attendance does not constitute a competency assessment, formal accreditation, or a ‘sign‑off’ to practise independently in any skill or procedure. Clinicians remain responsible for working within their own training, competence, professional scope of practice, and indemnity requirements. Where formal competency sign‑off is required, this must be obtained through an appropriate accredited training and assessment pathway.
Observation Day + Support
A clinic-based day where you observe and are supported to learn in a real clinical environment (no hands‑on practice).
Includes:
-
60‑minute pre‑brief (objectives, scope, boundaries, introductions)
-
Minimum 6 hours patient observation (may be split across two days)
-
Live observation of consultations and treatments (consultation flow, consent, planning rationale, asepsis, aftercare)
-
Real-time teaching and feedback between patients
-
Appropriate non-clinical support opportunities (e.g. set‑up, photography process, aftercare packs) within clinic policy and scope
-
60‑minute debrief (reflection, feedback, learning plan update)
Patient suitability note: I will aim to book patients aligned with your learning needs where possible; however, this cannot be guaranteed due to patient availability, suitability and clinical appropriateness on the day. Patient safety, consent and clinical judgement will always take priority.
Mentorship Assessment + Learning Plan
Every potential mentee must complete this structured baseline session before any observation or supervised clinic time. We’ll review your goals and preferred learning style, prior training/experience and boundaries, and complete a governance check (indemnity/insurance, scope, documentation standards and supervision expectations). We’ll also identify key development needs (consultation/consent, anatomy confidence, complications awareness and record‑keeping) and agree the logistics of your pathway. You’ll receive a written learning plan with staged objectives, focus areas and any agreed limits/exclusions for safety, plus documented next steps (no competency assessment or sign‑off). Training needs analysis and planning only — no case scenarios and no patient‑specific clinical decision‑making.
Education‑only Session
No patient contact. A 1:1 session focused on clinical reasoning, safety and governance.
May include:
-
Case-based learning (anonymised scenarios)
-
Consultation structure (Calgary–Cambridge) including ICE (ideas/concerns/expectations)
-
Consent standards (risks/benefits/alternatives, suitability and declines)
-
Complications teaching (recognition, red flags, escalation thresholds, emergency readiness)
-
Treatment planning principles (non‑prescriptive): anatomy review, product‑selection logic, sequencing, refer/defer principles
-
Documentation support (gold-standard notes, aftercare wording, audit-ready records)
-
Personalised actions to practise before the next session
Education-only means: no live patients, no hands-on injecting, and no patient-specific treatment decisions.
Supervised Clinic Day
A structured clinic day where you treat suitable patients under direct supervision, working strictly within the agreed scope set in the initial Assessment & Learning Plan session.
Includes:
-
60‑minute prep session (objectives, scope boundaries, consent, documentation, escalation arrangements)
-
Up to 8 hours on‑site supervision throughout your clinic day
-
Supervised consultations and treatments with real-time guidance and feedback (within agreed scope)
-
Safety-first oversight (suitability checks, expectation management, stop/adjust points if outside scope)
-
Documentation support (consent, notes, aftercare — audit-ready standard)
-
60‑minute consolidation session (debrief, feedback, updated learning plan)
Patient sourcing responsibility: You are responsible for sourcing your own patients for this day and ensuring they are appropriate for your learning needs, as set out in the initial Assessment & Learning Plan session. All patients must still be clinically suitable on the day and provide valid consent. If a case is not appropriate or falls outside the agreed scope, it will be deferred or redirected in the interests of patient safety.

Why mentorship matters
Courses teach technique — mentorship builds safe, confident real‑world practice.
A structured mentorship pathway helps you translate training into day‑to‑day clinics: stronger consultations and consent, better patient selection, clearer documentation, and improved readiness for complications and escalation.
It’s also a practical way to strengthen governance and professional confidence as you develop your scope.
Ready to start?
Please get in touch. I’ll ask a few brief questions about your current training, scope of practice and goals, then recommend the most appropriate next step.
Please note: Mentorship is educational support and supervision only and does not provide formal competency sign‑off.
