A patient stopped me mid consultation to tell me I had a large bogey hanging out my left nostril.
I will therefore be drafting my resignation later today and I ask for privacy at this difficult time. Mortified.

For the first time ever, ‘Junior’ Doctors in Northern Ireland go on strike tomorrow in a 24 hour full walkout.
We have had 30% pay erosion since 2008, and the worst pay and conditions anywhere in the UK.
Doctors are leaving.
We need our pay restored to retain doctors in NI.

We may not retain every fact we’ve ever been taught, but the depth and breadth of medical education forms a subliminal wellspring of knowledge that we draw from daily without even realising. It is a crucial bedrock of our profession.
Weakening that foundation is dangerous.
I’m putting it out there: I don’t believe it takes 5 years to get a medical degree. And I do believe that you can learn on the job if you already have a clinical role. Doctors should be honest with themselves.
Was every minute of your degree spent in learning/working? Was

Junior doctors in NI have had a ~30% real terms pay cut since 2008.
Our basic pay and working conditions are the worst in the UK, leading to staff shortages that are detrimental to patient safety

More unnecessary emotional manipulation from Medical Workforce Managers.

How insulting. We support good clinical care every day.

It’s inclusive. It’s easy for everybody to answer and maybe it’s a preliminary question to allow further enquiry into respondents’ gender identity?

Got an email today saying my first IMT2 job in August, (meant to be 6months GI/liver) is being changed to 3 months GI then 3 months rheum at a different site. Few hours later, I was informed my jobs will be 3 months GI and 3 months of renal.
Ok, which is it? 🤷🏽♂️ rheum or renal?

IMT rota was released late and at least four of us on it have been scrambling to arrange last minute swaps for weddings.
I rotate every 3 months this working year, and still have two weddings to fit in to this carousel of chaos.

My Trust are offering the same (low) rate of pay for extra locum 9am-5pm shifts as they are for nights. Just a reminder this work is extra-contractual, and our time, skills and the difficult decisions we make (especially OOH) are worth more. Know your worth. Don’t accept less.

I don’t work in UCLH but BBC news piece on IA showing seniors doctors discussing 15 people handed over to be seen by the ED night team as “more than usual” due to strike: Disingenuous? Misleading?
Maybe meant the med take?

This is so disheartening to hear. I have struggled with getting clinics, but have had no issues with getting acute medical take experience.
Departments that don’t provide an IMT with their mandatory basic training needs should have their trainees taken off them.

The responsibility, training, knowledge and skills required of doctors deserves to be remunerated appropriately. Current discourse isn’t about comparing salaries of incomparable job roles, it’s that todays doctors are being paid 26% less than their counterparts a few years ago

Tests usually take a while for a reason particularly specialist ones.
It isn’t Amazon Prime, you can’t expect it to be a next day delivery.
Some tests are only done in a few labs in the country, others are very expensive to run so are done in batches, etc
