MedBinfire

Overworked, underpaid, and subjected to unnecessary hostility. An NHS doctor was prevented from accessing the ward kitchen for a simple glass of tap water. It’s no surprise so many doctors are leaving for countries where they’re valued, respected, and treated with basic dignity.

Doctors received offers for Radiology training posts at around 3-4pm. They were able to accept these offers on Oriel and received confirmation of acceptance. Offers then began to disappear on Oriel. At 6:30pm they received this email. Simply unacceptable.

The audacity of doctors to have social plans

Sat in induction, and the F2s have been taken out for venipuncture training… The NHS is so unserious man, what do they think they’ve been doing for the past year?

We are clear: PA students do not study medicine, PAs are not medically trained, PAs are not medical professionals. We have approached the GMC to clarify its position.

Update: there are no jobs left for us, so we have been asked to re-rank areas (which are very large) within an already large deanery, with no further guidance. We are meant to start work on 1st August.

What is your favourite UK MedTwitter binfire? I liked the one where a Trust tweeted photos of their induction for F1 doctors and they’d made them all sit on the floor like reception age schoolchildren (2022)

🧵We are 79 soon-to-be Doctors who are supposed to be working in the East Midlands, starting in three months. However, we don't yet know what jobs, hospitals or even which city we will be working in. We are distressed, angry and fed up. [1/2]
