What are the best papers you’ve authored which haven’t gone anywhere despite you feeling they were impactful and citable?
Mine is -When things go wrong- relevant to all specialties when you call a colleague to help

The hardest lessons after training aren’t always in the OR or clinic.

I’ve been a Doctor 36yrs & I understand why Residents have resorted to strikes
20% less pay than Drs in 2008, £100k student debt, poor working conditions/job security, higher pension contributions, longer working life as pension after 67yrs
I had it good & Karol had it better

.@thomasdolphin from @TheBMA: "All we're asking for is for our pay to be valued the same as it was in 2008. We're not worth any less than we were 17yrs ago, we're not working any less hard than we were 17yrs ago, so why are we missing a fifth of our pay?"
Exactly. Solidarity

All in the same storm but not all in the same boat. Junior doctors are asking for pay restoration - some from just £14/hour to £19/hour. That’s it. If the government can’t afford that then everyone is going to have to fund their own healthcare. And you really don’t want that!

So today as a medical student on placement, the consultant surgeon asked me which specialty I was interested in doing, to which I replied GP, and they said “why do you want to be a GP? GP’s don’t do anything”... completely unacceptable behaviour, how do we change this attitude?
