When you're doing your best but you know it would be better if you were allowed. When you're doing your best but it's never close to enough. When it's been like this for years and only seems to get worse and no-one gives a s***. That's what breaks good people. #NHSCollapse

I gave my best years to medicine. Missed birthdays, bedtime stories, first steps, last moments. Swallowed the lie of our ‘indispensability.’ The truth? Medicine will take everything if you let it. And it will never love you back. Don’t regret it like me.

Spent a day of AL as "surgeon commander" for MAJAX sim. (Also got promoted to variety of roles inc paeds/obs consultant in addition to routine bonesetter 😆). Sooo much respect for colleagues who have had to do this in anger 💙

What an incredible day training for a major incident. Sims, within sims. It's was eye opening, challenging, and inspiring all at one. Overwhelming at times, with significant new insights. Thank you Kirsten Walthall and team. If you haven't been on it, I'd thoroughly recommend!

We tend to assume that the reason why it takes so long to treat patients in A&E is to do with the number of A&E attendances. 1/12
