Most people have no idea how bad the UK doctor training system really is. It demands double the training time of other countries, pays doctors less at every stage, and then often keeps them “junior” even after they finish all their training. Look at the numbers. 🧵⬇️

Can’t wait to get started! I have been involved in global development since my elective, it’s incredibly rewarding work - first port of call will be to survey membership! If you have a project or want to get involved with developing services get in touch!
Delighted to announce the formation of the @BritishHip International Development Committee. Our first chair James Shelton from Sheffield is going to start work on helping us to deliver education and support on a global stage, to countries that might benefit from our support.

Hip replacement in kids is even more life transforming than it is in adults. Delighted to publish our results but more work is needed in this niche area
The socioeconomic benefits of THA need further investigation to establish guidelines for the treatment of children with severe symptoms from the hip. #Arthroplasty #HipArthroplasty #Pediatrics @jonabarrow ow.ly/6l7K50VLc9i
