Partha S Kar 🇮🇳🇬🇧🏏🎥

Taking a moment to share the words of #T1D charity @BT1DUK from last evening 1999 January- came to 🇬🇧- - from Kolkata 🇮🇳-with nervousness & excitement 27 years later? It’s been an incredibly blessed life- beyond my wildest dreams A memory to cherish for the rest of my life Thank you 💙 @hilarynathan01 @KarenFAddington @danfarrow9 #gbdoc

“The quiet hush of a warm night…and the leisure of an Egyptian wine by the delectable name of Omar Khayyum - in the surroundings of the Old Cataract…your mind is bound to travel… A rueful smile takes shape…yet perhaps one laced with a whiff of satisfaction” How’s that for a start? 😎

“There is someone your age, experiencing their last day on earth….wishing they had the time you do” Enjoy the time you have #FridayFact ❤️

Feels like I need to start writing my book now… 🙂

@BouncyB101 if you say something derogatory for which you have to apologise? Best not to say it.

@parthaskar Do you feel that this still holds true in scenarios of huge power difference between the individuals? Whilst I think I understand your angle, I feel that this might leave people lower down the totem pole suffering in silence...

If you can’t say it to their face or have to apologise about it if the other person found out what you said in private? Don’t say it at all. Saves angst & embarrassment #ThursdayTuition

Ramses II 🥰 Leaving zero doubt who built the temple. 🙂

@maffygirl indeed.

@parthaskar I always say this. Do not trash peeps you would not say to their face.

I will be…back 😎

@docwas @kamleshkhunti @DrSdeG @drmohanv @DrSelvarajah @ChitraEndocrine @DrAmbrishMithal @idrlakshmi @FionaQuigs @ObesitySociety @GoggleDocs @AbbieSBrooks absolute unreal.

@parthaskar @kamleshkhunti @DrSdeG @drmohanv @DrSelvarajah @ChitraEndocrine @DrAmbrishMithal @idrlakshmi @FionaQuigs @ObesitySociety @GoggleDocs @AbbieSBrooks Tirzepatide now available in Pakistan for less than £40 a month. Many of our patients getting from there. NHS gets Mounjaro for £80 a month defined cost effective by NICE. We don’t have many clinical and patient voices in Obesity and T2D to force ICBs hand.

Bookmark this one The #NHS cannot afford present costs of #AntiObesity medications India will - likely- show the way & hold a clue For good or bad? The UK health system is heading towards a world of generics and unaffordabilty of most other things @kamleshkhunti @DrSdeG @ShivaniM_KC @NeilFlochMD bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@NupurLalvani @Unnikri @Chellaram_Hosp let’s see if we can organise something in May- as in Mumbai

@parthaskar @Unnikri @Chellaram_Hosp Please come 😊🙏

Year on year, we've been bringing along diabetes advocates to the International Diabetes Summit (IDS) in Pune to be in spaces where we are discussed! Thanks to Dr @Unnikri & the @Chellaram_Hosp team for creating space for us.

@IanStockport @kamleshkhunti @DrSdeG @drmohanv @docwas @DrSelvarajah @ChitraEndocrine @DrAmbrishMithal @idrlakshmi @FionaQuigs @ObesitySociety @GoggleDocs @AbbieSBrooks do they know how much is being used privately or even counterfeit drugs right now?

@parthaskar @kamleshkhunti @DrSdeG @drmohanv @docwas @DrSelvarajah @ChitraEndocrine @DrAmbrishMithal @idrlakshmi @FionaQuigs @ObesitySociety @GoggleDocs @AbbieSBrooks How much illegal import will there be from India to UK? Will UK GPs even know who is taking it?

“Any discussion of role expansion in healthcare must begin with training. This is an area that the royal colleges should lead on, although they often seem more focused on financial sustainability and international expansion than tackling domestic needs” Via @bmj_latest bmj.com/content/392/bm…

@NupurLalvani @Unnikri @Chellaram_Hosp really amazing to see the work you are all doing. Hope to go and see it someday too!

@parthaskar @Unnikri @Chellaram_Hosp Thanks😊

@Parody_RCGP @kamleshkhunti @DrSdeG @drmohanv @docwas @DrSelvarajah @ChitraEndocrine @DrAmbrishMithal @idrlakshmi @FionaQuigs @ObesitySociety @GoggleDocs @AbbieSBrooks it’s definitely going to happen.

@parthaskar @kamleshkhunti @DrSdeG @drmohanv @docwas @DrSelvarajah @ChitraEndocrine @DrAmbrishMithal @idrlakshmi @FionaQuigs @ObesitySociety @GoggleDocs @AbbieSBrooks $36-54 per month would be fantastic. It would actually make it extra rewarding for people to visit the magical country whilst loading up if the NHS is not prepared to come to the table.

@medicalmodelbri and we wait for RCP to intervene…yet again

New band 7/8a job ad for a PA to: ‘contribute to pt care where relevant and exercise a high level of professional judgement. This will include taking medical histories, undertaking physical examinations, diagnosing and explaining conditions during consultations.’

@GoggleDocs @kamleshkhunti @DrSdeG @drmohanv @docwas @DrSelvarajah @ChitraEndocrine @DrAmbrishMithal @idrlakshmi @FionaQuigs @ObesitySociety @AbbieSBrooks only 5 years to limp along then- buoyed by platitudes and “wrap around care”

@parthaskar @kamleshkhunti @DrSdeG @drmohanv @docwas @DrSelvarajah @ChitraEndocrine @DrAmbrishMithal @idrlakshmi @FionaQuigs @ObesitySociety @AbbieSBrooks Will be interesting to see, although of course “bio-similar” semaglutide probably won’t be available in 🇬🇧🇪🇺 until 2031!

@maffygirl @iceman_ex it’s been a wonderful life.

@parthaskar @iceman_ex Wonderful story Partha xx
