Got sent back to my old ward to cover a rota gap today, and the staff have made a petition for me to go back permanently πŸ˜’πŸ’”

Excited to be back at @NewcastleMedSch to help with MBBS interviews today. 9 years since I was sitting on the other side of the table, now feeling like I've come full circle!

Mixed feelings about today being my last ever day in a hospital setting. Main worry is about losing the skills I've spent the last 3 years learning, seems a shame to no longer use these...

Pleased to announce that I've officially handed over to @ZainKhanMed today after a very admin-heavy week! Looking forward to seeing @chunkncheck continue to move from strength to strength, and grateful for everything I've learnt in my 4 years as Director.

Looking for a keen medical student (or group of!) to take over my MedEd baby Chunk n Check. Lots of effort from the team went into making all the resources so don't want it to go to waste, but I just don't have time to keep it running and need to step back. Please RT/tag! 🧡 1/4

Can anyone recommend an accountant who won't charge me an arm and a leg to do my taxes? Need someone who can help with my personal stuff and LTD company, if they specialise in doctors even better. Drop some names/DM me please!

Sharing my ABG hacks with the F1 tonight. "It's always more medial than you think" Seems like a weird tip, but if I miss first time IT IS ALWAYS more medial than I thought... Please discuss πŸ€”

GP training is actually real training. I'm invited into clinic, offered WBPAs nearly daily & consultants prioritise my learning over service provision. Also have weekly, fortnightly AND monthly teaching! I've upskilled more in the last 6w than I did in the last 6m of F2.

3/4 At its peak, we had a team of 24 volunteers but as we've all graduated and got busy with our NHS lives, none of us have time to keep it moving forward. Ideally looking for someone new to steer the ship and reignite a new committee, so I can bow out and watch CnC keep growing!

4/4 If you're interested, DM me. I learnt so much about MedEd, business, and leadership building this, so would be great to give someone the same opportunities. Chunk n Checkers - if you're reading this, we did good didn't we?! πŸ˜ƒ

Shout out to the HPB F1 at the Freeman today - poor guy taking advice phone calls on his first day as a doctor. I just wanted to climb through the phone and give him a high 5, he was doing so well!

(Was meant to be a positive tweet, I know the system isn't ideal and F1s shouldn't be answering these phone calls. But if you're reading, you're bossing it. Keep going ☺)

A massive sigh of relief as I finish Foundation Training today. The last 4 months have been the toughest of them all, but I'm feeling positive and ready for a fresh start tomorrow as a GP TRAINEE! πŸŽ‰ Wahoooo!

Shout out to all the medical education centre staff across the country who will be working tirelessly to induct huge numbers of new doctors over the next two weeks. The amount of effort it takes is staggering and they don’t get nearly enough credit.

On the same day that the GMC release their survey results revealing that 63% of junior doctors are at high risk of burnout, we find out that we will be excluded from the 4.5% pay rise that everyone else in the NHS will be getting. What a kick in the teeth.

Well this has made my week! A thank you card from some students who have been in A&E. They also bought me a clipboard - something I've always wanted but never been brave enough to use on the wards 🀣 I do have a stamp... So maybe a clipboard is the next step!
