Delighted to have been part of the first iftar event at the college in celebration of Ramadan ๐โจ Brilliant initiative championing inclusion and diversity in surgery, thank you @RCSnews@NuhaZsurgeon@TMitchellFRCS
Really enjoyed the landmark first ever #Ramadan#iftar event at the Royal College of Surgeons, held to recognise the 3000 Muslim members in the UK. Great talks introduced by President @TMitchellFRCS including @SurgicalScarf
Well done @RCSnews for organising ๐๐พโค๏ธ
@maals5x@RCSnews Wsalaam, thank you! Traditionally, to study medicine at university you need to do A levels including biology, chemistry, and in some unis maths. As an FY2 doctor you can then apply for core surgical training.
Just a brown woman pulling up a seat with a few more letters to my name. Thank you @RCSnews for a lovely afternoon at the college! #ILookLikeASurgeon#MRCS
Thank you to everyone that attended and engaged in the panel discussion. Great to meet like-minded colleagues passionate about bringing change to the operating theatre #ASGBI2023 ๐๐ฝ
