Is anyone else who is chronically overcommitted never quite sure of what to say when people ask you how you fit it all in?? I honestly never know what to say and then feel awkward 😬 #overcomitted

Any tips from #medtwitter for someone doing their first emergency medicine job ? Let's share some positivity.

Have now completed my 2 emergency department induction shifts starting my ACCS EM training. Everyone has been so supportive and welcoming, positive vibes for the future, watch this space.

10 miles of the central London sights with 6 of my favourite people. Trying to make days like this happen around 2 on call doctor rotas is really not easy and the extra effort to make good stuff happen outside of work can feel intense. Life isn't like without these things 🙃

@timricketts_ A bin chair is a positive luxury

It's not a marathon or a sprint, it's a weird obstacle course of ups downs sinking mud and climbing walls. #ResultsDay2024

[Emily Kelly 🩺 @DrEmily_Kelly]

All the talk about a-level results day today has got me thinking about my journey. I didn't get the grades I was predicted at GCSE or A-level, I applied for medical school 3 times.

Now I'm a doctor about to start in a competitive national run through training programme and still focussing on achieving new goals.

[Emily Kelly 🩺 @DrEmily_Kelly]

I always knew this was a really tough part of the job but seeing it from the other side and the huge shift in a department had really made me think how this must be detrimental to people, patients and virtually everything. What's the solution? #residentdoctor

2 years in the NHS. As I am not starting in my training programme till November (due to working 80%) this is my very first experience of not rotating and watching the people around me change jobs, or start working as a doctor for the very first time.#MedTwitter #foundationdoctor

@DrJonasHayes Blimey now that’s some dollar.

I often tell people, if we privatise the NHS so it’s like the US, us doctors will be fine, it’s everyone else that will suffer. #DoctorsStrike

[Tim Ricketts @timricketts_]

The main think I hadn’t anticipated about striking is the pure, unmitigated joy of a lorry tooting it’s horn at the picket line

Junior Doctors are the doctors you see first for almost all interactions. They do emergency operations out of hours. They staff the intensive care unit. They’re the emergency resuscitation team. They deliver your babies. The term “junior” can often be misleading.

Rishi Sunak: "Have they looked after you?"

Patient: "They always do, but it's a pity you don't pay them more."

RS: "Well, we're trying."

Pt: "No, you're not trying! You need to try harder."

She's the hero we needed. 👏
