One to repost and bookmark for all surgeons. I might be @ethicon trained but we all bow down to Ron Barbosa MD FACS as the captain of insight and suture based real world investigations into 'but can it hold a melon ?' .Delightful. @JNJMedTechUKI

Shift from monitoring weight loss to improvement in #obesity related complications, QoL and life expectancy as #obesitysurgery success measures. Phenomenal talk by Alex Miras at #AUGIS2024 on current trends and future of research in #metabolic and #BariatricSurgery

Humble brag. Changed the clock on the cooker and only only touched 3 buttons. No engineering degree was needed !

Youngest (Erin) came home buzzing today having met Sorcha Eastwood MP in ‘real life’ representing Harmony Hill PS so brilliantly in the school council. Thanks everyone for making her feel so special. We are very proud of them both here in Lagan Valley Lisburn - GREAT role model.

Last big bird for 10 days. Last 8 weeks my Carbon footprint has been “compromised”. Glasgow sunshine is lovely. But now it’s time for whatever waits at home.

Brother hospitalised needing 24/7 care and observation (he’s fine). God bless these nurses looking after me too.. not hitting any high food standard but more importantly it was offered with buckets of comfort, empathy and compassion. #nhs #nurses
