Stranded in UAE; flight to UK cancelled. Not being offered another flight in a reasonable time by @etihad. Apparently random passengers being offered earlier flights. If we were on this ‘random’ passengers list, NHS patients of 2 doctors wouldn’t have to be cancelled @gcaauae

BCIS notes with great sadness the death of Alain Cribier. Alain was a true giant of interventional cardiology. Against many obstacles, some jealousy, and not a little hostility, Alain never wavered from his goal of bringing #TAVI to the masses. It is to people like Alain, willing to swim against the tide, and pursue distant dreams, that we owe the greatest debt of gratitude.

The Gov, despite opposition from doctors, is pressing ahead with regulating PAs & AAs under the GMC. @Matt_VickersMP, as my MP, please oppose the draft Anaesthesia Associates and Physician Associates Order 2024 to protect patient safety
This message could not be more on point. Devaluation of education should never, ever be acceptable. Because there would no longer be pursuit of excellence, only pursuit of mediocrity.
The Prime Minister @10DowningStreet said today "We were making very good progress before industrial action"
Waiting lists are a #PoliticalCHOICE

If you asked me about greatest change over the 40 years I worked in the NHS I would say the loss of consultant autonomy. The horrifying story of the baby-murders at Chester and the management’s refusal to listen to the doctors is a ghastly culmination of this process.
@chris_malkin4 Great technique Chris! 👏👏And brave too. How do you get the nosecone to stay engaged with the balloon and not slip? Also any concerns about scraping of atheroma and stroke..good that you had the CEP in place.
Rapid discharge of heart valve patients allows more people to be treated for other heart conditions and reduces waiting times which is great news for our patients... https://t.co/Eh75aYUxzR @EdwardsLifesci#TAVI

Let us remind ourselves how the NHS came to be
