The BritMeds 2007 (14)





The normal form of words is, "I am grateful to Dr Michelle Tempest for drawing my attention to this video…” but somehow, in view of the content, it does not sound right.

“Hi, I’m Patricia Hewitt…”

A prize for any British Doctor who gets through this without throwing up.
"A full range of birthing choices, huh? If only one could simply giggle and chuck the glossy Maternity Matters document in the bin along with Patricia Hewitt."
A brilliant article by Alice Miles

The Junior Doctor says this.
Few things can make a doctor’s heart sink more in clinic than a patient brandishing a newspaper clipping.
So at least well known journalist Ben of BadScience has insight.

What does a good employer do if one of his employees gets breast cancer? Why, he sacks her. You don’t believe it? It’s true, and you really will not believe who the employer was.

"Unlike Heather Mills, and many others, I have no recollection of having two legs. I have - as far as I am concerned anyway - always had one leg. This is me. This is how I have always lived."
Mum has age related macular degeneration... I think she may be suffering from Charles Bonnet Syndrome (CBS).
Read a bizarre conversation here.

Pfizer drug distribution deal triggers market investigation

BBC soap opera is portraying tonsillitis as a “life threatening illness”.

Dr Rant asks “What’s new, pussycat?”

The Mental Capacity Act comes into effect, bringing with it back door euthanasia

Here is a frightening question. How many members of the Committee on the Safety of Medicines (CSM) have ties with Glaxosmithkline? The answer is here.

In “We know what we know…” Kevin Leitch says, “I like doctors…by and large…” read on.
Forgive me for going a bit crazy but for once I've got very little to moan about. I love Spring, it is by far the best season, and it makes me so happy. On top of that, today is officially my last day of obs and gynae. Fingers crossed I won't have to go near it again in the future.
Another medical student put off obs & gynae.

Between 18 and 20, a woman is like Afrca : wild, naturally beautiful and full of mysterious, fertile deltas.

Wait until the Junior Doc gets to Afghanistan.

The pathologist tries to convey the pleasures of cutting up dead bodies.

In Cambridge, the Angry Medic takes time off from revision to watch the new Dr Who

Tom Reynolds finds "another teenage boy has been stabbed on my patch."

New Naw meanwhile orders one chow mein and a cardiac arrest
We turned up at one of those warden controlled flat complexes that seem to exist in another dimension to the real world. They really are quite surreal. I don't know what drugs the architects take but they must be good.
Why do I do this job moans about architecture. Dr Crippen thought all warden controlled flat complexes were like that.

SHP is now personally financing the NHS
“having to make all phone calls on my mobile at my own expense because replacing the broken phone in my office isn't budgeted for.”

"The NHS is administering only about half the amount of radiotherapy needed to treat British patients properly"

That is the Welfare State we're in for you.
Patricia Fuckwit appeared on the Radio 4's Today program to unveil her latest fuckwitted scheme that aims to deliver more care in patients' homes. Every deluded, dishonest sinew that belonged to Ms Fuckwit was needed to grind out the propaganda for this latest ideological campaign.
Dr Rant is on the rampage again.


The MTAS and MMC week

Listen to this as you read on.

It has been a challenging time for Remedy UK recently. The Review Group's most recent fudge is not acceptable, and we have been hard at work to find a solution which we think is fair and equitable.



Remedy UK goes from strength to strength, and has instructed top medico-legal solicitors, Leigh Day & Co to act for it.

The Psychiatrist asks, “Have spin doctors spun doctors?”

The disheartened docotor meets some mendacious serpents

Dr Grumble is still doing battle and feels “like those stupid people in the fairy tale who were unable to see the emperor's clothes”

The Ferret Fancier has unearthed the MTAS parrot sketch

Hospital Phoenix divides the great and the good (ha! ha!) of the MMC into animals with backbones and without backbones

When I begin to play this Seal Online game, I first go to buy seal online cegel to buy some my favorite and beautiful clothes to dress up my character. I have spent cheap seal cegel to buy my favorite cloth. I mean we have anime and some necessary seal online cegel based games that do not look really kid dish. Though I will admit with my own seal cegel I went crazy on leveling with DECO. Some of the skills that we can use our sealonline cegel to improve to look amazing, and are fun to just watch honestly.
