This is my monthly full-time (40hr) payslip June 2022. I studied for 6 years at Cambridge Medical School and graduated 2021. I'm lucky not to have any student loans on top of this.
It’s actually wild that you’re on £25k. I LITERALLY just don’t believe you. You’d have to show me payslips for me to believe that 😂😂😂

Tomorrow, a woman in England will be sentenced for ending her own pregnancy. The maximum sentence she could receive is up to life imprisonment - the harshest penalty in the world. We need abortion law reform now. Report from @HannahAlOthman in today’s @thetimes

A medical student recently observed me inserting a central line on ITU, which I just couldn’t get in. Initially it seemed a wasted opportunity, until we discussed how little training we get in inevitable failure. A few pointers from somebody experienced in failing:🧵

genuinely my favourite past time when I go on the tube
i always forgot to do general inspection during my osce’s so i developed a bad habit of trying to do spot diagnosis on the tube.
does anyone have any tips as to what to do for medical electives? any advice would be appreciated x
“Zara believed that a woman should be able to walk home.” Please, take the time to read every word of this tribute to Zara Aleena by her family. I’m not sure I’ve read anything quite like it before.

Banning abortion will not stop abortions from happening - rather, it will stop SAFE abortions from happening. Today’s news is a travesty to women’s health and women’s rights, and will widen existing health disparities. #RoeVsWade
