I am a Consultant and Have a Lovely Private Clinic and My partner is also a Consultant and I want to say the World Has Gone Mad‼️ I will Not be Striking Because I like having lots of money and I Don’t Want Future generations to Do Well and I NEED to let you all know this ‼️‼️‼️‼️
… what’s a physician again??
is this not just straight up misleading and lying what’s happening 😭😭😭
literally ask any general member of the public and they won’t have a clue who these ppl are - this is shady and how ppl still don’t think this is a bad idea is tapped ‼️
Im retired Doctor, utterly disgusted by the Juñor Doctor strikes. When I was a junior, i had to go into the mines to check it was safe for the canaries and my supervisor, Professor Rt Honourable Trunchbull OBE, used to put us in the Chokey if we didn’t do TTOs fast enough 😡
any woman who is a doctor: “I use Dr on my reservations because i worked hard on getting the title and im proud”
some man with the handle
@DrRichardDickFiddleMMBSBsc
(Hons)FRCP_PGDipshit: “isn’t that a little conceited, pompous maybe?” 🤔🤔🤔🤔
psst a med student leaving a ward round to find something else to do, like studying and More Studying, bc you’re not paying any attention to them, doesn’t mean they are lazy
stop this goofy idea that they pull up to do the bare minimum when we’ve got 999 things to do at once ‼️
one thing that drives me nuts in GP imo is when ppl have a p normal consultation then drop the most red-flaggy curveball in the last second
“yeah i also have unexplained weight loss, night sweats, coughed up blood, shat blood, pissed blood, bruising, and joint pain”
like HUH⁉️
hi babes i want to remind you all that an FY1 is at least 23 year old or older and not a child xx
please stop with saying they’re adults now and that you’re setting them “homework” when you don’t have any rapport or friendship with them xx
the same goes for all other fields xx
someone close to me takes methotrexate + anti-TNF, called 111 w fever, sore throat, unwell > was told they’d speak to a GP, spoke to a paramedic who didn’t know what methotrexate was > advised bed rest > called 111 again > spoke to someone who didn’t share their role?? > >
idk how this is controversial, regardless of your job role, hopping on a logged-in computer to prescribe is objectively inappropriate, and then saying “you shouldn’t have left it logged in around me, a grown adult with a frontal lobe” is worrying and shows you have poor insight
i get the 28 A-levels person thing is super cringe but we’re beefing w a teenager saying something goofy and not the likely overbearing parents giving her wild brainrot come on smh
i can’t understand how it’s controversial that ppl shouldn’t say use the “Dr.” title in a clinical environment when they’re not a doctor lol
yes it sucks that you’ve done a phd but unless you’re declaring to every patient that the phd ≠ medical degree you’re misleading patients
just wanted to add that i spoke to two 1st year PAs and they’ve already done ABGs on unwell patients and venepuncture etc.
i had a 5 week cardiology block last month couldn’t get an ECG until the last week despite spending hours looking for ones to do/begging
rant incoming‼️
no hate to PAs at all but man medical training is an absolute shitshow lmfao we’re both getting v little out of placements bc some poor overworked soul now has to do 2x the teaching work sigh
i just wanna see high volumes of ppl pls ty i need it bc i’m a doccy next year
i Managed to get My Medical Degree in 3 months and did most My Learning On the Job in Shropshire NHS Foundations Trust. I feel like Learning about the Heart and Pacemaker potentials is USELESS and Upper Motor Neurone Lesions are WOKE ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
a consultant tweeting from their holiday home be like: these FY1s that i ignored during med school, gave no/a shoddy timetable to, and did not give a single shit about are so incompetent 🤯
this is why we need less of them, theyre flawed (even tho i was once one but im safe now)
someone pls tell me how like 3 simulated sessions across 3 years and one final artificial ABCDE station makes a junior doctor competent managing acutely unwell patients?
all the research keeps saying “dang these docs are useless we need to fix our curricula” and nothing happens
how can you go to a £5k-per-term private school, start a medical school interview business in the name of "widening participation", and write on your interview pages that "we strongly recommend 10 hours" of interview tutoring which costs £699 are you taking the piss
tw suicide:
earlier this year i overdosed and it was stressed, overworked junior doctors that are the reason i’m still alive today, not only by giving treatment but giving reassurance and being the sweetest ppl around.
they deserve better
#JuniorDoctorsStrike
#PayRestoration
then to an advanced pharmacist who told them to see the GP by calling 111 again?? then finally is seeing a GP?
dawg what is even going on anymore lmfao she’s now seeing a GP but what?
am i missing something here??
we got mfs not knowing what methotrexate is handling ppl now??
i could literally do a backflip off a mountain while scranning a banana and drinking champagne I GOT ALLOCATED TO THE NORTH WEST BAYBEEEE 🗣️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
I AM SO GAT DANG RELIEVED 🔥🔥🔥
being an undergrad med student in year 1/2 giving smoke to doctors about clinical practice is one of the most cringey things bro you need to learn bile acid conjugation smh 😭😭😭
Please can medical schools actually take responsibility and ensure opportunities for getting their goofy sign-offs are there, rather than making them waste hours looking for someone who’s miserable and overworked to watch them put ECG leads on and fill out a convoluted eForm x
look i ain’t gonna dip my toes into the strange side of this discourse but i really do not like the idea of someone intubating me and controlling my breathing under anaesthesia without having the proper training in med school for it, like that’s just unhinged imo
idc what your opinion on this stuff is, you cannot have this happen and then turn around and say “see? this is why we need to be regulated!!” when ppl are knowingly breaking the rules
if a med student knows they can’t do something and sticks with it, why can’t these mfs?
🔴 NEW: IT blunder allowed PAs at Calderdale and Huddersfield to "illegally" prescribe drugs inc opiates and sedatives
PAs prescribed oxycodone, codeine, lorazepam, diazepam and midazolam, despite being "instructed they are not legally able to prescribe”
These JUNIOR DOCTORS are SO Entitled (💰) and Are asking for TOO MUCH 😡.
during my Appointment there was one sitting Awkwardly In the Corner and they told me they’re only there for A WEEK.
they also told me they have to do an exam called a “YOU CAT” and “BMAT” and A-LEVELS 😡
this is no hate to any of these roles im just lost on what level of knowledge is required for these tasks and why the NHS thinks it can be broken down into this guideline and that, without the need for clinical judgement and experience
to all of these UCAT, BMAT, interview prep courses etc. you cannot say you're "widening participation" and then charging hundreds of doubloons for your painfully average course to impressionable young, anxious teenagers.
how that doesn't sit right with you is gross
refusing to write a prescription for a patient you don’t know until you have the full story should not be controversial lmao you silly little people are so silly ‼️
tw: suicide/death
okay but in all seriousness the only reason i’m alive is because of so-called “useless and inexperienced”junior doctors managing me after an intentional paracetamol overdose earlier this year and suspected meningitis last year 1/?:
despite having the allocation i wanted, i want to just reiterate that i was simply lucky and nothing more and it’s actually devastating to see peoples’ support networks being torn apart in the name of being “widening participation”
it’s utterly unhinged and shameful…
i have to pay ~£200 on top of registration fees, rent etc. yearly to park at my hospital to yk... work as a doctor lmfao i don't have that kinda money 😭😭
and before dinosaurs chime in:
1. i do not have a netflix subscription
2. i can't stand avocado toast
i ain’t gonna lie i could do with better advice regarding being a junior doctor than “buy cake and cookies for the nurses” and “worship your corporate overlords” i’m ngl im shitting bricks
regardless of role i think it’s turbocringe to casually post med-fluencer-esque posts about things like cardiac arrest, all “teehee! we tried but they died! thanks team!
#YouCantSaveEveryLife
🙏🏾”
like what are you doing? someone just died and ur like “this is perfect content” 😭
look yall ppl NEED to stop making it seem like being a PA is a protected characteristic please SHUT UP ‼️
what the EVER LIVING HELL IS THIS DRIVEL??
the end of this has such “there is only one race, the human race 😁” energy
please STOP ‼️‼️
This is one of the most offensive things I’ve read in a while, I can’t believe
@bmj_latest
published it. Windrush isn’t something you can throw into an argument slapdash for points, it resulted in deportations, families ripped apart and generational trauma. Christ.
mfs acting like im gonna prescribe tramadol, gabapentin, diamorphine, methadone, alfentanil, and “Ramipril” if a patient gives me a box of lindt chocolates please 😭😭😭
The MDU advised doctors not to accept expensive gifts and to keep a register of any gifts they do receive in case they need to justify them at a later date.
ppl who blame communication skills and not the lack of bedside teaching, the lack of unis taking accountability for learning, overstretched clinical placements etc. for medical degrees getting worse truly have no brains soz x
only in med school do get made to think that graduating as a qualified doctor but in a “low decile” is a bad thing like are we forgetting that you LITERALLY FINISHED MED SCHOOL??
imagine working your ass off to get the grades needed to get into med school, then working your ass off throughout med school, only to end up charging (scamming) impressionable 17-year-olds high amounts of money for medicine admissions - actual deadbeat behaviour ngl
no widening participation measures for this, a friend asked the UKFPO ppl about it and they said “we’re looking into how we can make a competitive process more open to WP”, this is the move they make?
anything but spending money on less privileged ppl right? cheapskate wankers
We fundamentally disagree with the decision by the UK Health bodies to move the Specialised Foundation Programme into the PIA system from 2025 and will fight for students by resisting this change in any way that we can.

cancer specialist… but they’re not a doctor like of all specialties to do that with why CANCER?? come on at least let it be dermatology or orthopaedics or something (/j) why go for one of the most emotionally-intense and stressful specialties and mislead ppl there what???
last year an ENT doc asked me what i wanted to do and i said neuro/rheumatology and he said “you don’t want to see ppl get better?”
jokingly i said they’re more varied and “ENT is just 3 things, the Ear, Nose, and Throat” and oh lord he went on a rant about how ENT is everything
@ActAsOneBDC
branding it as a spelling problem was dishonest, poorly thought out, and shows a complete lack of taking responsibility, come on be better pls
@BMA_JuniorDocs
ppl need to realise that the “comparison” being made is talking about how pret relatively cares more about its employees than the nhs lmao, the intent isn’t “we are so good these silly little baristas deserve nothing”. it puts things into perspective
@ch1kitabanana
@BBCNews
sorry mate but if my kid’s got down’s syndrome and playing fantasy id rather they could escape and appreciate what they have is accepted lmao, this is embarrassing
“junior doctors always rotate and we have no trainees, this is a problem!!”
“junior doctors have no confidence w emergencies, due to a lack of training”
so WHY IS THE SOLUTION NOT ANYTHING TO DO WITH THIS 🗣️‼️‼️‼️‼️
i’m fr so sick of hearing this drivel oh my GOD acc 0-brained
getting a bit bored of ppl scrapping w each other over silly things/fighting for silly things and not getting big moves made tbh
idrc if im called a junior doctor, infant doctor, foetus doctor lmao i just want a training post, job security and to be able to give good care
some mfs really acting like they pull up, take one history, leave, and go sesh w their mates instead of frantically procedure-sign-off-hunting, patient-presentation-sign-off-hunting, portfolio filling, passmed/OSCE revising, working, or extra-curricular-ing like please be real 🙏🏾
@jasebyjason
its kinda mad how white ppl suddenly develop an understanding of the differences in privilege relating to race, sex, gender, disabilities, income etc. the moment someone talks badly about dangerous dogs
imagine if they put the same energy into the problems affecting ppl rn sigh
i can’t keep organised or on top of anything oh my GOD
i have 9000 tasks to do before starting F1, i email asking if there’s a checklist or something, they say no, yet i’m calling it now i’ll forget smth and they’ll tell me off
HOW DO YOU DO THIS??
“chaotic incident?” excuse me?? blatant massacre*, acc makes me miserable seeing the media portray genocide like this
what’s the excuse? tunnels and bombs in the food supply?
my profile’s not a safe space for ppl who support genocide btw!
i can never wear my stethoscope around my neck and always shove it in my pockets/carry it bc of cringe social media med students/doctors i can’t i just feel embarrassed
i’ve seen mfs buy stethoscopes and scrubs before even applying to med school i canny 💀💀💀💀
arguing w/ 18 yo A-Level Biology student who was insistent:
- 0 sympathetic nervous activity at rest, only parasympathetic
- the right atrium/ventricle contracts first then left
who tryna have a heart rate of -5 bpm and a non-working heart? 👁️🫦👁️⁉️
medical teaching in the UK is designed to make anything that goes wrong the student’s fault as much as possible so institutions can’t be held accountable ngl
the amount of time students waste compensating for piss poor timetabling etc. is tapped and how it’s our fault
i am wasting so much time looking for basic procedures and i’m in my FINAL YEAR I CANT GRADUATE IF I DONT GET THIS DONE
i still have yet to do venepuncture, blood cultures, an ABG etc. and i just know im gonna have to waste hours for some geezer to be like “yeah ur fine”
to all the brainless neanderthals who voted reform, i will personally make sure that i steal every single job yet also claim every penny in benefits, right now i have 160 jobs stolen from “Native Britons” and counting, your days are finished 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@zachakm10
@ButNotTheCity
wym bro i know my pronouns lmao 😭
bro didn’t deny being broke and lonely and also got hurt by two words, it’s okay lil bro try to improve as a person 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
regardless of your opinion of PAs, finding their facebook and looking for ways to get mad and put them on blast is cringe, weird and weird ngl
there’s no funny brain rot on here anymore where’s the 1st year med students medsplaining consultants like come on
@02offers
@tallymedic
i think you truly cared ab kids learning in school you might draw your attention to the other 9,999,999 things going wrong that are significantly more impactful rather than this minor thing lol
@nawislearning
don’t worry this is the optimum temperature for enzyme-substrate reactions that allow discharge summary-writing
this has a strong evidence base behind it (no one’s died from heat exhaustion, but we’re getting there 💪🙏🏾)
tips for new med students to build rapport with the team🔥:
- tell an ENT doc they only handle 3 things: ear, nose, and throat (guaranteed to work)
- tell a vascular surgeon their type of surgery is the easiest
- tell a urologist they’re a professional cock and ball inspector
i literally cannot stand loser med students who use mummy and daddy’s money to present someone else’s poster for them abroad in another country lol how am i supposed to compete i have Zero 😍😍😍
hope every single, balding, loser brainless little racist is happy the rwanda bill’s passed
you’re still gonna be struggling to make ends meet, have terrible healthcare, have no job, and have your money wasted deporting ppl against their will
but hey “foreigners” are gone!
