The post

The second project (TOGETHER 2) is a collaboration with the University of Oxford and is Evaluating video and hybrid group consultations in general practice. The role of Exeter researchers in the project is to examine patient experience data from surveys as well as primary and secondary care utilisation which has been extracted from medical records.
