They weren’t always so secretive: Look at the published dates. Where was Royal College of General Practitioners or any college when this was proposed? In 2017 HEE approved 30% cuts to its running costs to prioritise developing the non-medical workforce over training support. Link: pulsetoday.co.uk/news/practice-…

⚠️ For those working with PAs MPTS case published 2017 where a ST3 Junior Doctor was suspended for failure to adequately supervise a physician assistant’. The PA was known as ‘Dr G’. There may have been other issues too - irrelevant. Read the following: gmc-uk.org/api/gmc/lrmpdo…

Does having a physician associate on your team impact on training opportunities for Doctor colleagues on your team? 58.24% across all grades state PAs limit (to some degree) 71.77% for registrars! 79.59% for IMTs!!

Sadly so many real life Shrutis. Remember their names. Vaish Kumar. Rose Polge. Rebecca Ovenden. Tom Oakland. The latter all trainees in my region. Perhaps it’s time to fix toxic training. Be kind to your juniors. Look after each other.

8/9 year ago Sir Jeremy Hunt MP told drs he would only give them a pay-rise if they agreed to work weekends - leading to a series of #iminworkjeremy tweets! Now Wes Streeting says he will only give the NHS more £££ if medics agree to work weekends… Well guess what? #iminworkwes

Letter to the editor in response to laparoscopic cholecystectomies performed by an SCP: a review of outcomes. Makes for excellent reading.

I can't help but think if all these wise men and women that rubbished me then had listened, how different it may have been. Again, a shame on all their houses. But remember guys:"They (PAs) will just see the easy Asthma patients in A+E" - Prof Dame Jane Dacre, ex PRCP 2015 3/3

The student loan interest fiasco is going to be a major issue for any doctors who started from 2012- no one is going to do consultant overtime to pay a marginal rate of over 70%

John Stepek (@john_stepek) 's Twitter Profile Photo

The problem with acknowledging that the student loan system is closer to a graduate tax, is that this turns it explicitly into a tax on aspiration. "Study hard and you too could win a 71% marginal tax rate" is not a message that any politician - left or right - wants to send.

I have gone straight into training from F2. This is my current student loan trajectory(wage inflation unable to accurately work on). If i go straight to cons i'll have £82k STILL left after my 30 years! DO NOT FORGET FPR #MedTwitter platinumpizza™ Resident Doctors
