Incredible day! #Classof2025 #newdoctors Our 400 final year medical students have all become doctors. We are so very proud of them. Most started uni during Covid, navigated a changing curriculum and were the first cohort to do the GMC MLA exam....good luck with everything.

@davidnnaumann Wow. This is what the internet is for. However, it seems to be crammed with cat videos.

In summary: Making “However” Great Again: 1. Use the correct grammar! 2. Aggressively delete or change all instances of the word. I’ve learnt this the hard way, and haven’t always got it right. But you can do better! Over and out.

I need to write a thread about the word “however”. This single word is abused so ubiquitously in writing, even by those who should know better (academic writers, teachers, journalists). If you find yourself writing the word “however”, please read this 🧵 🙏🏽

Three years on, we remember Vaish—one of the finest Medical Registrars and human beings we’ve known as a team. Her kindness, compassion, and dedication touched everyone at SWBH, Her spirit lives on in our work and our hearts. The world needs more people like Vaish. 💙

@doc_hnaqvi Exactly right. I remember this conversation with my dad. It changed how I communicate profoundly and (I hope) for the better (it was done really rather well btw) @AnnaLock

Very insightful read & for non surgical medics as well I’ve experienced the conversation as a relative of someone being told they have cancer. I will always remember that 💬, the responses from those hearing it in the room & it’s changed my own approach @chrisvthompson

Caring for surgical patients requires skill both in and out of the operating room. Attention to 3 core communication skills offers a way for surgeons to collaborate with patients and families to make patient-centered decisions about surgery. ja.ma/43VCOdm
