@Kaypink1964 @DrAmirKhanGP I agree he totally did the right thing. I just think if I was sat on a train and someone pointed out a ?skin cancer and I found they’d then posted the encounter on Twitter I’d feel a bit uncomfotable. Unless the patient has consented to that ofcourse which is totally different.
