An incredibly disappointing response from The Royal College of Surgeons of England. Granted, many studies have limitations but this included >1 million patients and adds to other evidence. This was an opportunity to highlight what The Royal College of Surgeons of England is doing to increase & embrace inclusivity. Instead he’s dismissed it.
New JAMA Surgery study analyzes over a million patients who underwent surgery between 2007-2019 & found that those treated by a female surgeon were less likely to die, get readmitted, or suffer a major complication within one year. ow.ly/4cYg50PHSqz

🔴EXC: NHS bosses destroy careers of whistleblowers who stood up to protect patients’ lives. Talented doctors and nurses claim they have lost their jobs–with some driven to brink of suicide–as bosses sought to bury their concerns. Gordon Rayner telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/05/1… 1⃣

I’m simply horrified to see NHS England now literally breaking the law in how it misrepresents physician associates & other allied health professional - who are NOT doctors - to the public. These posters are from the Bradford District & Craven Health & Care Partnership. 1/n
