Enormous congratulations to our current and recent IMTs graduating from their MRCP ceremony @RCPEdin tonight, including Anand, Gabby, Gavin, Robert, Richie & Sarah - you've all worked so hard for this, very well done!
Yesterday I worked a 12.5hr shift in ICU. Staff are no longer allowed to park on site so I had to go to the park and ride. I arrived at 9.30pm, I was alone, it was dark, there were groups of young men in their cars. I never want to be in that situation again 😢 @NHS_Lothian
My mother gave me ONE piece of advice when I started medicine:
‘Don’t become a GP or a surgeon’
I only listened to half of her advice.
My mums a GP and I could never do what she did.
Thanks GPs, ignore the bullshit. We know your worth
Just a friendly reminder that race and ethnicity are social constructs.
Human DNA is 99.9% similar across all groups.
And there is more genetic diversity within a single racial/ethnic group than between two or more groups.
@dhlexpressuk have been waiting 5 hours now for my parcel to be collected with a collection window of 9.30-12.30 given and no update. I was planning to get some sleep prior to my night shift or should I continue to wait indefinitely?
Edinburgh doctor Gavin Chapman is running every day in December to celebrate his successful kidney transplant three months ago. Brother-in-law Stuart, who donated his kidney, is joining his #StepintoChristmas challenge. They've raised over £5k! 👏 👏 👏
