In the Governments new Revalidation Program, Professor Peters is in the very first batch of doctors in UK to be successfully revalidated. Revalidation is the process by which licensed doctors are required to demonstrate on a regular basis that they are up to date and fit to practise. Revalidation aims to give extra confidence to patients that their doctor is being regularly checked by their employer and the GMC. This is a new milestone enabling continuation to practice as a doctor.
