The primary recommendations of the LHPC and Flowers Report (University of London, 1980) was that six medical schools should be formed from the amalgamation of 34 existing teaching institutions. These were to be linked to designated ‘University Hospitals’ and would provide the clinical training for medical students. Some would be Postgraduate Specialist Hospitals, some the traditional teaching hospitals where regional specialties would be concentrated and the remaining hospitals located in the suburbs designated as ‘complementary hospitals’ ensuring that medical students had access to large numbers of patients in the local acute specialties (Table 5.3).
