@jamestoml1 @OrthopodReg Congratulations matey. Well deserved. And you’ll probably be pretty good at it 🤩

[Simon Booker @MrSimonBooker]

@theartfu1doctor Yep. Presumably they’re hoping more senior folk pull the ladder up behind them?

A response to Dr Peter Hilton – and all those who share his abhorrent views.

[Dr Tony Goldstone @goldstone_tony]

[Resident Doctors @BMAResidents]

Dear @SteveBarclay - we’re glad to hear you’re finally ready to discuss pay with us.

[Simon Booker @MrSimonBooker]

This. My colleagues now are not worth less than I was back then. Don’t give up #JuniorDoctorsStrike

[Kat Parmar @KatParmar]

Here’s my payslip as a first year doctor in 2005, next to a first year doctor colleague’s in 2023. 18 years later, their take home salary is less than mine was. I lived for free in hospital accommodation and had a fraction of their student loan.

@jamestoml1 @NHSHEE_NEY Congratulations James, that’s excellent news. You’ll be missed in Ortho, but I’ll still hear you from across the corridor 😉

[Simon Booker @MrSimonBooker]

@generalorthomd @OrthoYour Even as a shoulder and elbow surgeon this hurts my eyes

[Exeter Hand Unit (ExHU) @ExeterHandUnit]

It’s back! After the success of last year’s course we are hosting another. Day 1 is hand and peripheral nerve and day 2 is elbow approaches. Great faculty and great learning opportunity! First first serve so get in quick. @shouldersurg @jmceachan @dominicpower1 @NicolaFine1

[Simon Booker @MrSimonBooker]

@RoshanaMN I took a sawbone forearm and hand - they loved that!

[Simon Booker @MrSimonBooker]

Looking forward to treating my patients in the new unit!

@Alison_McGovern Please can we sack the Tories?
