My 1st year as a doctor was one of the toughest of my life. Can’t imagine what the new cohort must be going thru with this! Needs an urgent fix for this year & a radical rethink for next. We’re short of doctors & none of this will help us keep them. #UKFPO bbc.co.uk/news/health-68…

My professional life is truly dizzying

I’m lucky to be surrounded by such highly performing professionals

I’m learning from them every day

Each week I witness some new mindblowing clinical encounter or publication or teaching event

I wish I had time to share it all here

It amazes me that consultant SPA activity isn’t better planned. So many colleagues being asked to deliver roles that take way beyond the time given. ‘You can do that in your SPA’ seems an elastic concept. Maybe this could help…
