Most people have no idea how bad the UK doctor training system really is. It demands double the training time of other countries, pays doctors less at every stage, and then often keeps them โ€œjuniorโ€ even after they finish all their training. Look at the numbers. ๐Ÿงตโฌ‡๏ธ

Are you afraid to go out this evening because of the colour of your skin? No? There you go. Thatโ€™s what is called privilege. Stand by your friends and colleagues who donโ€™t have that. Speak up for them. Use your privilege. Thanks for coming to my #TEDtalk

Just leaving this for others to see, because the truth is in the next room to me is someone who looks exactly like me too. So where are you gonna go then? Or do you like wasting time in a doctorโ€™s surgery when we have really sick patients to see? Youโ€™re welcome! #Racist #riots #NHSGP

I am immensely proud that the NHS I work in is one of the most multi-ethnic and diverse organisations in the world. NHS colleagues and emergency workers from many countries and faiths work around the clock to serve every UK community. You have my utmost appreciation and respect.
Iโ€™m proud that people from nearly 200 countries work in our NHS. I completely condemn this racist violence and stand with our staff and the communities they live and work in. Thank you to our emergency services who are working hard to keep everyone safe.

Authors in JAAD discuss a technique for standing cone management that combines the purse-string concept with a linear closure. This allows reinforcement from multiple sutures, which decreases risk of dehiscence, without excision of Burowโ€™s triangles. โžก๏ธ jaad.org/article/S0190-9622(โ€ฆ
