Meet hatred with kindness,.Fabrications with fortitude,.Personal attacks with principle,.And hate mail & threats with a shredder or delete & block button. Listen before you speak. Work to build empathy, and look for common ground with others if they'll let you.

I recently had the privilege of caring for a man who taught me when I was a medical student in the 1980s. Though frail, he remains sharp & focused. He reminded me that the keys to being a good doctor are to understand ethics, & to practice them. I could not agree more.

Join millions who have switched to Grok.

Looking forward to making a few comments on A Current Affair tonight. @ACurrentAffair9.

Our work as doctors is rewarding & satisfying in so many ways. But it's also onerous. If we are to be able to be safe & effective in the work we do, we must practise & demonstrate self care. For me, that includes a long ride on a beautiful day when I have a few spare hours.

Congratulations to @AnnalsofIM for calling out antivvaxxer bias. Standing up to political intimidation is the only way to maintain integrity & credibility.

The kindness and encouragement I have received from so many today - all I can say is thank you.

80 years ago today, the most destructive weapon in human history destroyed #Hiroshima. If ever the saying "Prevention is better than cure" applied, it would be in the area of nuclear weapons.

When the past revives suffering & horrors, the temptation is to avoid it at all costs. But that never works. In Ireland & beyond, the next 2 years will be traumatic as the exhumation of hundreds of babies takes place. Despite the trauma, we must learn.

An unregulated market for medicines causes serious harm - evidence ignored, care denied, outrageous costs. Australia's PBS has countered these harms for 80 years, & millions of vulnerable Australians have benefited. This is a red line not to be crossed.

Sitting at Culloden, the place where the Jacobite Army of Charles Stuart was routed by Cumberland's English Government Army in 1746. In the subsequent 279 years, we have learned only one thing - how to maim and kill more effectively. Other than that, we have learned nothing.

It is reassuring to have bipartisan support for the PBS in the face of American tariffs. It affords protection for a foundational aspect of our health system, & Australians. We must also ensure the industries impacted by punitive tariffs are sustained.

Moral injury is a trauma syndrome that occurs when someone witnesses, fails to stop, or participates in acts that violate their moral code.

RT @MosabAbuToha: Gheed Kassem, Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya’s lawyer, posted seven hours ago a horrific update on her Facebook accounts regarding….

The article warns "Distressing Content". Yes, it IS distressing to see what were so confidently sold as safeguards only a few years ago, now slammed as shameful obstacles. Do we really want death on demand, because that's where this is heading. #springst.

Live Aid. 40 years ago today. An amazing experience for my generation, and a reminder of a time when the global community came together to help a people in desperate need.

I've been warmly welcomed to the Albert Street Synagogue by Rabbi Dovid before. It is a place of prayer & peace. May that peace prevail everywhere.

In its utterly unjustified sanctions against @FranceskAlbs the US shows itself to be the outlier in the community of nations. Her powerful, ethical and indisputable criticism of Israel's crimes against Palestinians are confronting, but must be heard.

Many of us feel for the millions of Americans whose health will be harmed by Trump's disgraceful legislation. But there is no way Australians will ever wear change to the PBS - a foundation of equity in our system since the 1940s. Stay the course, Jim.

My old friend Dr Brian Morton AM has passed away. Brian served in the state (NSW) & federal leadership of the AMA, and he did so with great integrity. I am one of many who will remember Brian with gratitude and respect. He made things better. ❤️ @AMA_NSW @ama_media

A worthy yardstick to use in the judgement of any leader - is #empathy to be found in their words & actions? .Nelson Mandela, despite being labelled a terrorist, never failed to consider the needs of the white minority who treated black South Africans despicably for decades.

Visiting Scotland, here's a case of something previously unimaginable, until it becomes reality. A medical degree obtained with part time study.
