My little bit of black history. Jan 2020: UK’s first 4 Black female Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeons met for the first time. Now 3 more and counting 😁Encouraged to post this after convo with 2nd year UCL Medical School student today. Just. Do. It. #ILookLikeASurgeon UCLH The Royal College of Surgeons of England

MY TEDx TALK IS NOW LIVE ON YOUTUBE! 🙌🏾

Reminder
- You cannot be what you do not SEE
- Proper representation WILL reduce the gap in health inequalities
- To any young person, you can be whatever you want, do NOT let your environment deter you, GO for it!

I’ve lost count of the times I’ve been openly mocked and laughed at in theatre by seniors and colleagues because I have two wear two scrub caps to cover my braids (I’ve not worked in a trust where I’ve been able to find a cap that fits). Let’s maybe stop doing that.

About time I made things a little more official!
