Absolutely not. Results given straight out of the gate please. You know them. You know they need them. Even 5 minutes of chit chat is a cruelty.

Use of SBRT for painful vertebral mets vs standard EBRT. Translates to improvement in pain. But how do we deliver this in day to day practice? @ESTRO_RT #ESTRO24

@DrNicolaDavis @BreastDocUK I always write to the patient. This is a really useful document from the Academy of Royal Colleges: aomrc.org.uk/reports-guidan…

Working on my comm skills workshop for oncology drs & think i should include some of the ‘non-verbal’ communication we do - anyone aware of any useful guidance on writing letters (esp when to the patient directly!) @BreastDocUK do I remember you tweeting about this before?

I qualified in 1994. First job was a pre-reg house job at St Thomas’. Found this payslip. Hrs were significant but I worked under the same SHO/Reg/Senior Reg/Consultant. The firm structure was brilliant for training. Cannot believe what juniors are paid now. #JuniorDoctorsStrike
