Staff. I think flat shoes are ok, but trainers are a bit unnusual. IDGAF patients like the fact I'm not clip clopping all over the place.

Who is this guy because he is my future husband with that beard and eye roll 😍😍😍

I don't expect male doctors to know much about the female anatomy tbh. That's for lady doctors. #nowedonotpeeoutofourvaginas #casualmisandrism #sorrynotsorry

He will. I knew a guy so like him (minus the privilege - he ended up in jail for longer) that I wouldn’t be surprised if in two weeks he ends up back inside.

I am not that bad, I’m so sorry you are though :( have you thought about pre-tying shoe laces and just putting elastic across the top so you can slip them on and off?

Well it's in my medical notes and has been since I was walking, and has caused loads of problems post-pregnancy, but sure. You do you.

I’m a mature student (around nine years older than than the cohort I’m in) and sometimes I’m like “woo, I’m so young and hip! Look at me fitting in with everyone!” and then something stupid happens and I’m like “lol no I’m an actual adult excuse me while I fix this mess”.

I love by “it’s easier to apologise than ask permission.” I don't think anyone cares what's on my feet and patients appreciate the silence.

I just smiled knowingly. I VALUE MY FUTURE CAREER PROSPECTS.

Was about to say I'm in Scotland, but they are a UK company! I always need something with laces/a tightening buckle as I have really narrow feet. I'm eyeing up those Mary Janes (flat ofc)!!

Not that I know of, it is just a nice gender neutral term instead of saying “Latino community”.

Some guy at hospital tried to make fun of my trainers asking me if I’d “forgotten my good shoes” and I was like “lol no I am hypermobile so if I don’t wear comfortable shoes I will feel like I’m dying.”

See?! This is your spiritual home.

This. I literally assemble meals piecemeal. Do I have protein? Do I have vegetables? Do I have carbs? What flavourings? That an ordering my shopping online have been my biggest money AND time saver. I can complete my food shopping in about ten minutes and get it delivered the next day.

Cool, I didn’t know that! (Though probably should because, y’know, medical student) catch you #twinja while I torture myself over an essay I said I would do a first draft for tomorrow.

Yeah the care commission also got dragged through the mud in 2007/08 (???) over residential homes for people with severe disabilities and the absolute lack of care these young people went through at the hands of “carers” and they've been on the ball since then. Then again, I'm pretty sure they only cover England and…

There was a scandal a few years ago about doctors pre-signing abortion procedure (the “second signature”) without ever seeing the patient. I think this would be akin to that and it's important to make sure that the people put forward for this are capable of consent and not being forced into it by parents or partners.…

Remember that all of the healthcare provided by the state in Scotland is under NHS Scotland. We are “old school NHS” and we do not put contracts up for tender, therefore there is no sneaky sneaky privatisation. The results is a more joined up and fluid system (though the computers drive me off my head).

Midazolam can be used as a sedative here, which means patients can breathe on their own and be relaxed but form no new memories ie they won't remember the procedure. I've seen it done with colonoscopies and bronchoscopies.

Marie Stopes isn’t in Scotland or Wales and doesn’t perform abortions in NI. So in this case, England is the correct usage.
