Can we stop belittling other specialties, calling them stupid and easier? Specialties, different roles and areas are there for a reason. If you removed the measly cardamom from a chicken biryani, do you think you’re going to enjoy it?

Hi everyone 👋🏼 I’m Meenakshi, an incoming ACF trainee. I was a budding anaesthetist (on the anaesthetics AFP pathway) until I had my ED rotation and saw how many conditions can be prevented if we spent a little bit of time.

Can I just say, despite the challenges in the NHS right now, I’ve come across some absolutely fantastic clinicians who put their all into their service and have made me want to be better. Their passion is infectious and I only want to spread it 🤧 😂 #MedTwitter

Of course with the current climate it’s proving difficult, but I was adamant to make a change and be a part of it. I’ve since changed career pathways and will be an GP trainee august onwards. My love for procedural skills remains.

I love seeing different innovations and learning about them, hence my gigs in VC, start-ups and consultancy. Please message if you want to chat about any of the above

P.s. In my purpose of making the world a better place, I frequently talk about psychology, mental health and mindfulness. But all backed with research, the geek is me and I am the geek. 😎

when hunger strikes on a night shift… ngl wasn’t the best, needed more seasoning and a bit of oyster sauce for more flavour - #hungrymedic

I’m leveraging that with my love for food and creating chemistry with different ingredients. I’m also very cerebral (I do like the best of both worlds) and so you’ll see a lot of academia and evidence based tweets here 🤓

@Long_way_round_ We need more seniors like you! Breaks 🙌🏽 are 🙌🏽 needed 🙌🏽 it’s a cognitive profession! The brain uses 20% of our energy. How is it meant to function if you’re not watered or fuelled?! It’s a basic requirement

Treat everyone respectfully knowing that if, doctors (acute/chronic/community), pharmacists and healthcare assistants etc didn’t do the job they are trained to do, the whole system would collapse. Let’s make biryani folks, and let’s flipping enjoy it 🤤 #MedTwitter

@Long_way_round_ @uinseann87 Ah! Regardless. We need more people like you. I remember I had the most amazing nurses and pharmacists who would nudge me to eat something had it gone beyond 1pm. Some would get snacks and have it together. Amazing camaraderie honestly.

interesting way to market @British_Airways definitely got my attention. Just did a quick search on Pubmed. New environments, curiosity and culture positively engage our #mentalhealth whilst active holidays reduce diabetes, high blood pressure etc. Nice one

Louder for those at the back please! It’s the beauty and the beast of being a generalist

@DrLindaDykes @Laconic_doc Ditto. I trained as a GP after doing quite a stretch in internal medicine. So 13 years before I could say "I am a GP". But even after that, every day brings complex problems, strange presentations and challenge of multimorbidity. If it seems easy, then you're missing stuff.

@MustafaBoorenie @iDrSunny So whilst I agree with you, there’s much to be done on the treatment end too! Tech and AI can help for sure

@MustafaBoorenie @iDrSunny Using longitudinal clustering and analysis of data which includes temperature and cytokine trajectories, we can further segregate and find sub phenotypes of patients. It’s such a heterogenous condition that it’s difficult to generalise. One may need GCSF another steroids…

No, you won’t. Because despite its “small” nature, it adds a fantastic amount of flavour. Without it, you’re eating pulao my friend, and if you don’t know the difference between biryani and pulao, you need some seasoning baby 💋
