@doctordolla4@DrJohnEGibson Could surgical training be shortened ? yes a little BUT all those years of basic training teach people to be clinically competent looking after sick people - just as important as operating skills. No point doing a good operation if you die on the ward
@iDrSunny @02offers Service provision is a vital part of training. I learnt loads as a junior from busy clinics. Service and training go hand in hand and lead to a well rounded experienced doctor. Cutting service provision will lead to big holes in experience. The next step up being then too hard
@orthodoc@JArthroplasty My thoughts were similar about the studies stating that robotic assisted arthroplasty was superior to convential. Bottom line is jury’s still out on all of it
@JeremyClarkson I have a wild flower garden of about a third of an acre - bereft of bees in particular and much less numbers of all types of insects this year compared to last. It is a very cool wet crap summer though 👎
@christiancalgie The best national anthem has always been the Welsh national anthem. Beats everything on melody alone. No descant needed. And then there’s the words…..❤️
@JoshRomOnAir@MarinaPurkiss This only thing this policy does is raise money. It hurts kids in the private and public sector ultimately.

@KenDodDadsDog @BestForBritain @alexhallhall @FT It’s the missing billions which is foremost in my mind. Next government needs to initiate a public enquiry into this and level with the public. We need to know what happened, and money needs to be clawed back
@TopDastan@BBCBreaking The above post is nonsense. Article does not describe a bacteria at fault, but rather a common deficiency in the immune system (genetics) of 95% of people with IBD.
@annaturley This is very worrying. Having to explain to a prospective MP that this isn’t a tax break at all. It’s so depressing that the standard of intellect from our potential political leaders in this country is so poor. Politics should attract the brightest and the best. Sad it doesn’t.
@hjluks The tendinopathy all around the body related ie genetic factors at play. I see a lot of gluteal, adductor and hamstring. They’ve almost always had “rotator cuff” issues or TE. I use shockwave. It improves symptom severity but might not affect duration
