“The Maudsley Training Programme is without doubt the largest, and dare we say it, the best place to train in psychiatry. You get everything that the South London & Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust can offer, and the same goes for the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, part of King's College London. Plus South London is now the trendiest place in London."
Simon Wessely  - Head of School of Academic Psychiatry, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London

“The Maudsley Training Programme in Psychiatry has a special place in mental health practice and research internationally. As a trainee here (starting in 1990) I not only learned clinical skills from some of the key opinion leaders in mental health, but I also learned about life from many of the patients I saw, coming from a rich and diverse local community. We continue to provide this world-leading training, true to Henry Maudsley’s original vision of clinical, educational and research excellence."
Matthew Hotopf - Executive Dean, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London


"The Maudsley Training Programme means excellence, and the most outstanding psychiatric training by the very best educators to some of the finest resident doctors in the world. Our ambition and standard now is no less than it has ever been, and we continue to strive, to improve, grow, and learn together. Generations of leading clinicians, academics and leaders have been trained by this programme, and today we are determined to continue that tradition as we look to the future of healthcare and research in the UK and beyond. As Chief Medical Officer, I am proud to have been one of the many people who benefitted from this programme in the past, and I am committed to supporting those now in training as they develop and grow their careers, and care for our patients and their loved ones here in SLaM and beyond."   
Derek Tracy  - Chief Medical Officer, South London & Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust
