Friday was a very special day at Princess of Wales Hospital as we formally renamed the day surgery unit to Richard Johnson Day Surgery Unit, in memory of an exceptional surgeon, leader and all round inspirational colleague. Thank you to Richard’s family.

Celebrating #NHS75birthday. A time of reflection. In our 30th year of supporting our trainees, we are thinking of Brian Rees OBE. He saw a need for training in innovative technique to support the NHS in Wales. Voila WIMAT! Miss him everyday. We'd love to hear your memories of BIR

Couldn’t agree more. Being referred to as “junior” having been qualified for best part of 13 years is unhelpful. Another reason I lament the loss of titles such as senior SHO and senior registrar as these reflected progression.

The term ‘junior doctors’ does doctors-in-training a disservice. Great news that BMA is dropping the term. I hope others do too.

The first group of medical students trained at Bangor University have completed their studies! 👩🎓👩⚕️
These are the first group of students to be trained entirely in North Wales. 🏴
This is a positive step towards creating the North Wales Medical School.
