Thrilled to accept a job offer from HNE Health today, set to continue my medical education as a JMO in 2020. It will be a privilege to start serving a community that has done so much for me over the past five years at University of Newcastle!

‘Antidepressants is not the treatment for burnout. Yoga is not the treatment for mental illness.’ The perfect distinction between stress, burnout and illness, and the role of resilience.

Well said Dr Stamp. This is not a ‘new wave’- RACSurgeons campaigning for mandatory seatbelt use in the ‘70s could have been seen at the time as ‘out of their lane’, but we now appreciate it was ground-breaking grassroots health advocacy. #socialjusticeishealth

In defence of the ‘morning coffee break’ on WR- in the last 2 days I’ve presented a long case to our consultant, heard about the IMG experience from our JMO, and been advised on recognising the dying patient from our med reg. #MedEd

‘No one dies in intensive care.’ Not our best example of #grassrootshealth and #preventativemedicine...

Recognition isn’t why we become #studentvolunteers, but it is very nice when it happens! Thank you University of Newcastle for the honour, and thank you University of Newcastle Medical Society for the platform.

It’s official, SPARTAN needs a twitter account. Stay tuned!

As a physician who cares for the #LGBTQ community, I am terrified for my #transgender patients 🌈 Please vote in 2020. My patients lives depend on it. #TransRightsAreHumanRights #endotwitter #PRIDE2020 nytimes.com/2020/06/12/us/…

Such a joy to facilitate one of the breakout sessions for this weekend’s virtual ASSC 2022. A stunningly clever and competent group ready to bring Australia into the next stage in our collaborate research experience- writing and running our own international projects.

My absolute privilege! Can’t wait to work with you all on future collaborative projects 🌏📈

Our team at Hunter New England in NSW, Australia are very excited to be joining the fray! Data collection week of Oct 12-18 across 12 surgical specialties. Local trainees, JMOs and medical students, email us at [email protected] to find out more and express your interest.

Very excited about Hunter Spartans first published article, featured in the ANZ Journal of Surgery this month. As always, a pleasure and great learning experience working with my collaborative research colleagues around the country. Here’s to many more!

An absolute pleasure! Thank you Australasian Students' Surgical Association (ASSA) for the invitation. I am forever impressed by the standard set by our future leaders in surgery.

Excited for the POSTVenTT project this year! An important topic that really needs investigation

Excited to be involved in such an ambitious international collaborative research project, designed here in Australia. Hunter Spartans will be hosting across three HNE sites next month with 20+ med students and JMOs involved 👏🌏🩸

Fantastic work from our John Hunter data collectors! Large scale, well designed studies like this both further the surgical literature, and verse our med students and junior docs in valuable foundational research skills. 🩸📊💻

My favourite takeaway from a recent course on feedback. People look for in mentors guidance and commitment to helping us grow. We are not seeking niceties or false praise. I’m on the bandwagon for honest, rigorous feedback. (Source: HNE Sim Centre tinyurl.com/2z6vxyhj)

So exciting seeing this project publicly shared after a year of behind-the-scenes development. The OPERAS project group is truly a dream team and it’s been a joy to come together as students and trainees for a common goal. Congratulations TASMAN Collaborative!

To all the physician trainees in my network- I have been lucky enough to be in the orbit of Prof Martin’s generous and authentic leadership. Her whole career has been in service to her community, and her positions are well worth your time this RACP election. Jennifer Martin - Physician and Board Director

Invigorated and informed by my first ASOHNS Annual Scientific Meeting! A highlight was Prof Payal Mukherjee outlining the social and economic impact of poor hearing over a lifetime #ASOHNS2022
