@BBCr4today Why are you taking Stephen Nash’s opinion to have as much weight as the BMA’s?

[Andrew Ting @MandrewTing]

@RoshanaMN Huge congratulations Rosh!! So well deserved 💪

[The Bone & Joint Journal @BoneJointJ]

A total of 24,591 articles were reviewed, and 39 studies met the inclusion criteria for the review, involving a total of 25,363 patients aged over 60 years with a hip fracture.

I’m very excited to announce that after ranking 4th in the T&O ST3 national selection, I’ll be starting as an NIHR Academic Clinical Fellow (ACF) in Trauma & Orthopaedic Surgery with @imperialcollege and the @NWTOrtho deanery. I’m so grateful to my incredible mentors! 🦴🔨

[Bone & Joint Open @BoneJointOpen]

Hip fracture care is marked by significant variability in the performance indicators used and how they are defined which makes meaningful comparisons across healthcare systems challenging.

@Xeon4f145d96s1 Those specialties are commonly called the doctors’ doctor for a reason

@parthaskar @RCollEM @DrAsifQasim @doctor_oxford @JanetEastham @DrSelvarajah @COPDdoc @ShrillaB @ShivaniM_KC @DrLKVaughan @UKGastroDr @VictoriaTzB Aren’t all patients in ED undifferentiated by definition?

[Andrew Ting @MandrewTing]

@medicalmodelbri Absolutely shameless to describe himself in that manner.

[Andrew Ting @MandrewTing]

@ShiromChabra I’m sorry this has happened to you. The system is becoming increasingly anti-meritocratic and will continue to lose its best and brightest.

[The Bone & Joint Journal @BoneJointJ]

This review provides a comprehensive overview of all studies that reported the prevalence of complications after surgery in older adults with a hip fracture, using data from over two million patients.

@effiewebbjourno Did you really rush out a story with minimal fact checking just to meet a deadline? Do you not see how harmful your actions are on the public’s confidence in the NHS?

[Andrew Ting @MandrewTing]

@UKGastroDr I suspect what that person really means is that it’s easy to pick out IBD in a multiple choice Q about diarrhoea where the other options are migraine, pneumonia and depression.

[Andrew Ting @MandrewTing]

@medicalmodelbri Please do!

@pa_StephenNash @LittlePersonDoc I did 6y primary school, + 5y secondary school + 2y A levels + 6y med school = 19 years. Why didn’t I become a consultant surgeon upon graduating med school??

[Andrew Ting @MandrewTing]

@doctor_oxford @RCPhysicians Is her refusal public?

[Andrew Ting @MandrewTing]

@adb0wen @STLD98 If you genuinely believe that’s what GPs do then you are beyond help.

[Andrew Ting @MandrewTing]

@FrederikBaron @cannula_service @Anisocyte @DrEilidhMaria @timricketts_ It is a shortcut because you’re bypassing the high entry requirements and competition ratios of medical school and postgraduate training. Spending lots of time in a single field doesn’t make you an expert.

Also, your linked study doesn’t support your claim.

[Andrew Ting @MandrewTing]

@HDambhaMiller @SecretPhysician It’s interesting you called them ‘lead geriatrician PA’ which seems misleading to me. Imo, ‘geriatrician’ implies doctor. We wouldn’t call a nurse working in cardio a cardiologist nurse.

I think language really matters in the PA issue. (Not intended to be an attack on you).

[Andrew Ting @MandrewTing]

@Dr_Done_ The mental image I have of this PA saying they can give guidance and recommendations to an ED consultant 😅
