🙌 couldn’t agree more! The Mengo Hospital surgical team are fantastic colleagues, dedicated to becoming a centre of excellence for laparoscopic training

#laparoscopic training Mengo Hospital going to the next level w urology, gen surgery & gynae application!

The groundwork of setting up a lap sim lab w Adam Peckham-Cooper John Dalton & local surgeons has come a long way from the DIY lap box I took out 2 yrs ago!

Lets keep dreaming big 💪

Very proud to see the collaboration between Mengo Hospital & Leeds Institute of Emergency General Surgery Leeds Teaching Hospitals flourishing. It’s exciting to see consultant colleagues supporting sustainable laparoscopic training in Uganda 🇺🇬 💪

Great to see Catriona Waitt receiving the Dolores Shockley Diversity & Inclusion in Clinical Research Award #ASCPT2024 . for work building evidence for the medication we use in pregnant & breastfeeding mothers. Looking forward to better evidence to use in SAM Online.

I am deeply, deeply grateful for our NHS.

That's it. That's the tweet.

Personally I think ‘junior’ is an unhelpful & confusing term for qualified doctors, many of whom have completed specialised postgraduate examinations and have years of professional experience (10yrs+ in some cases)

The Kids Operating Room event today was brilliant and really insightful.
