Rheumatology GMC registration Specialist Register Medical cannabis Clinical assessment Patient management Clinical governance Evidence-based medicine Remote consultations Multidisciplinary collaboration

Sample interview questions How would you assess whether a patient with fibromyalgia may be appropriate for cannabis-based medicine?
I would take a structured history covering diagnosis, symptom burden, previous and current treatments, functional impact, mental-health history, substance-use risks, comorbidities, and contraindications. I would explain the current evidence and uncertainty clearly, establish realistic treatment goals, and document shared decision-making. If treatment were appropriate, I would set a monitoring and review plan focused on benefit, adverse effects, function, and safety.
How do you maintain clinical quality during short remote consultations?
I use a consistent consultation framework, review relevant pre-consultation information in advance, and prioritise safety-critical questions and the patient's treatment goals.

I communicate the assessment, options, risks, and follow-up plan in plain language, then ensure documentation is complete. Working closely with nurses and pharmacists can protect consultant time while preserving continuity and patient safety.
Describe your approach to prescribing in an area where the evidence base is still developing.
I apply established clinical and regulatory standards, appraise the available evidence, and remain transparent with patients about limitations and uncertainty. I use shared decision-making, careful selection criteria, defined outcome measures, and scheduled reviews. I would also contribute anonymised outcomes data and use governance processes to refine practice as evidence evolves.
How would you respond if a patient requested treatment that you did not consider clinically appropriate?

I would acknowledge the patient's concerns and explain my clinical reasoning respectfully and without judgement. I would discuss alternative management options, safety considerations, and any appropriate referral or follow-up. Clear documentation of the assessment, discussion, and agreed plan is essential.
What is your role in a multidisciplinary clinical model involving nurses and pharmacists?
My role is to provide specialist diagnostic and prescribing oversight, make complex clinical decisions, and ensure the treatment plan is medically appropriate. I would value the team's contributions to preparation, education, monitoring, and follow-up, while maintaining clear accountability and escalation pathways. Regular communication and shared protocols are important for consistent, safe care.
