The characteristics of a good psychiatrist practising in the UK health services have been described in policy but not in practice. We set out to determine what key characteristics are required for an individual to be identified as a good psychiatrist to become a member of the Royal College of Psychiatrists. A postal survey of all clinical tutors responsible for psychiatric training in the UK and Eire was carried out. These tutors are approved by the Royal College of Psychiatrists. 113 tutors responded (out of 163, 69.3% return). The most important identified characteristic was overall competency in diagnosis, management and investigations (98%) and the least desirable was ability to appraise staff (13%). With recent changes in training and assessment in the UK, further surveys of this kind are indicated to understand the trainers' views, and should be extended also to trainees.
