I have no words. Thanks to the
@thetimes who led with the story about 1/3 female surgeons being sexually harassed, even raped, at work, for
publishing this letter from an anaesthetist saying we should expect it!!
This is why it is still goes on
@wpsms_org @RCoANews
Bullying should not happen. Sexual harassment is a criminal offence NOT a routine part of medical training

@katrinajcurtis It got worse in his subsequent ‘interview’ he really doubled down on the misogyny. Absolutely horrific.

Being a doctor is a hard career, but funnily enough the men don’t have to deal with the challenges of medicine whilst also having a consultant rub their penis up against them in theatre or commenting on what their breasts look like in a scrub top. It’s 2023 ffs this has to stop

Of course he did OF COURSE HE DID #medtwitter

Absolutely appalled that @thetimes would publish this today in response to yesterdays news article about sexual harassment of female surgical trainees in the NHS. Utterly disgusting. Please all consider signing this: openletter.earth/right-to-reply…

Check out our paper in @BJGPjournal 👇👇👇
For patients with chronic breathlessness we need to enhance symptom recognition, consider alternative approaches to incremental investigation and expand the concept of diagnosis beyond a disease label.

Today at the 11th hour DHSC finally invited us to a meeting to discuss pay.
Unfortunately they weren’t serious and in typical smoke and mirrors fashion used this to kick the can down the road.
The Secretary of State once again did not turn up.

#pt" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nela.org.uk/reports#pt NELA shows frailty assoc’d with worse outcome (not new/surprising) but geriatric medicine input reduces mortality (5.9v9.5% in non-frail, 13v22% in frail). But isn’t routine practice! Lots to unpick but chat to @NHSiNet if you want to establish POPS

And you are MY hero @NatGaskell. This country are so incredibly lucky to have doctors like you 💗

Continually having to deny people access to their relatives in hospital and deliver endless bad news over the phone is the hardest thing I’ve had to do as a doctor. This government make a mockery of that. @joelycett I’m sorry you had to go through this, but you are my hero x
