Most summer medical programmes are lectures on a campus. This puts students inside a working London clinic, with real patient contact, consultant teaching, structured reflection and supervised residential support.
LIPS is a private outpatient clinic at Battersea Power Station. Students are on-site every single morning of the week, not visitors to a campus, not observers in a simulated venue.
Students learn from consultants who train junior doctors at top NHS teaching hospitals, including The Royal Marsden, St George's, King's College Hospital, Guy's & St Thomas', the Royal London and the Whittington.
DBS-checked staff are with students throughout the programme, including clinical days, supervised evenings and accommodation.
Every morning is a two-hour clinic block in small groups of 3–5. Every afternoon includes practical skills, simulation and workshops. There are no passive days.
The week is designed to create meaningful examples for career clarity, interviews, UCAS reflection and family confidence.
Students shadow consultants with consented patients and observe how modern clinical care actually works.
Students receive white coats before clinical rotations, a memorable moment for them and a powerful parent-facing content asset.
A full simulation lab covering BLS/CPR (kit via LIPS), suturing, history-taking with patient actors, and clinical communication practice, plus imaging and diagnostics exposure across X-ray, ultrasound and ECG.
Live demonstrations of AI in clinical practice, including mole-mapping and imaging, plus a week-long capstone project presented to LIPS consultants on the final day.
Students explore multiple specialties, including diagnostics, GP, surgery, psychiatry, dermatology, cardiology and women’s health.

LIPS brings clinical credibility: a Battersea Power Station address, a working outpatient setting and consultants drawn from The Royal Marsden, St George's, King's College Hospital, Guy's & St Thomas', the Royal London and the Whittington.
Students are not hidden at the back of a lecture hall. Small-group structure keeps the experience focused, safe and meaningful.
Students hear from clinicians directly, ask questions and connect observation to medical school applications and career decisions.
