Just did CPR in the car park on my way into the hospital. Wouldn’t have been able to if striking. It takes years to gain skills. You need us #doctorsStrike@SteveBarclay
When you take some of the brightest people of their generation, make them work in a system that is broken, understaffed, with a bullying / racist culture- cut their salaries by 30% then refuse to meet with them to discuss terms and conditions, and blame them for being unreasonable- you wonder how out of touch a government can be.
If you want a NHS, you have to value junior doctors more.
As @rsb8s told the Guardian:
“It’s incredibly impressive they [Pret] have given repeated cost of living pay increases this year. It’s a shame the government has not seen fit to do the same for the people who work in the NHS. https://t.co/0nyDUQEGD0
The NHS has structural barriers to flexible and LTFT working. This deters people from returning to work and fulfilling their potential. We need to address this to retain clinical staff.
A quick review of UDH Vs ADH/DCIS Vs ALH/LCIS. Monotony, strong ER expression are clues of a neoplastic process rather than UDH. Discohesion, cytoplasmic vacuoles are clues of a lobular process. E-Cadherin/P120 stain is helpful. #PathTwitter
The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon.
The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow.
Absolutely 💔 RIP Dr Gail Milligan. @NHSEngland How many more will it take before you start taking action to recognise the considerable strain primary care clinicians are under?
I’ve found my first pay slip from August 2014. After my first month working as a doctor I took home £2,501.83.
Last month, after 95 months working as a doctor I took home £3,040.86.
There’s something not right there. #PayRestoration#OverworkedUnderpaid
In 2015, my baby brother passed away at age 10 from a heart condition called hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Six years later, I’ve just submitted my Masters dissertation researching the genetic causes of the same condition. I hope you’d be proud of me, Max ❤️
Onto a very special award - Lifetime Achievement. Our very worthy winner is Dr Clive Grundy, Consultant Microbiolost, who worked @ASPHFT since 1983, retiring last year. He is described as an amazing clinician who goes above and beyond for his patients. Congrats Dr Grundy.
Don’t fall for ‘Royal Mail’ text to pay redelivery fee then follow up call pretending to be bank telling you that you have suspicious activity on your account! Many thanks to HSBC Kingston for swiftly sorting it out, in particular, the knowledge & patience of Aaeesha @HSBC_UK
