Part time GP

@LittlePersonDoc @SocialistHB @NurseSayNO it’s a bit concerning that a doctor is unaware that mental health social workers are an intrinsic part of any mental health team.

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@Urodoc46 Legally, how?

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@Urodoc46 @DrLKVaughan What exactly was bad about the bad old days? If you’re talking about 100 hour weeks you need to go back over 30 years, surely. Same with the notion that the consultant had any kind of power over your future.

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@bcdsignature Helpful to read this. I was at risk of buying your book out of curiosity.

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@SimonCalder Very useful to know - perhaps also let people know it can take a year for a response and another year to get the money!

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@RoshanaMN It seems pretty obvious what happened. Don’t pretend otherwise - it won’t help.

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@RoshanaMN I'm no more of a military lawyer than you are, but surely this was a crime and not merely a 'tragedy'.

@JakeWSimons ‘Most of our missiles didn’t blow up schoolchildren’.
‘Shit happens’.
‘We have noble aims’.

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@Dannythefink @B1EMW I think the current war goes way beyond stopping Iran’s nuclear programme.

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@JakeWSimons Maybe the clue is in the word ‘international’.

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@MichaelRosenYes Evidently not. There are countless examples of vile regimes that get bombed for a few weeks and then surrender their arms and invite the population to hang them. It’s a well known path to peaceful government.

@UKGastroDr @dr_musgrave @TheTelegraph__ If they did, then suddenly a trip to Turkey for a gastric sleeve might seem like a better idea for those who aren't put off by the idea of surgery.

Especially as the meds will probably cost more like 30 grand. And the patent will likely last longer than 10 years.

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@UKGastroDr @dr_musgrave @TheTelegraph__ Most of the people I know who are on them (all privately) either hope to keep the weight off because they're eating more healthily, or have had to stop because they can't afford it any more.

I don't know anyone who has said OK, I'm expecting to spend 20 grand over next 10 years.

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@gushamilton I’ve not looked at it (or any other Cochrane review) but saw the headlines. Does it just set out to prove that medical training is pointless?

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@drkeithsiau @steve_rinaldi @PARALIFELINE I also struggle with names (which I find is a personal and professional handicap), but i don’t see that on the DSM 5. I’m not saying you don’t have ADHD, I just query whether that is part of it.

Where does Twitter fit into your self- management plan for ADHD?

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@drkeithsiau His victims are still victims, but ‘deliberate harm’ would make him an unfathomable psychopath. Unfortunately he’s just a butcher, and a stain on the reputation of GOSH.

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@drkeithsiau Where has anyone said it was deliberate? He was incompetent and carried on being incompetent because (a) there weren’t robust internal assessment systems, and (b) he didn’t have the integrity to recognise it himself.

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@angryhacademic I hope you find your new GP helpful.

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@angryhacademic i wouldn’t expect to manage an MS patient because i’m not a neurologist, or a neurorehab doctor, or an MS nurse specialist. My training is in early diagnosis, not management.

[David Mosley @DavidMosley1]

@angryhacademic he needs to know your symptoms, how they affect your life, what has helped / not helped in the past, and yes, what you think might be worth trying in terms of treatment. And after all that, he might have thoughts of his own
