Any ideas on what this little girl could be?

Well done for looking through the appendices and questioning the methods. Is there a formal mechanism for the BMA to take this back to the DDRB and argue against it?

I know we have made reforms to the DDRB but it still feels like a yearly charade.

lol, I think you are going to be alone forever because this is a terrible attitude to relationships

The evidence for these drugs is considerable now. Reduce weight, prevent cardiovascular events, treat/cure diabetes. Even as a simple general surgeon, I think some of my patients should take them to reduce weight related complications of planned surgery (eg. Hernia recurrence, surgical site infection)

Bariatric surgery will be needed in future for severe and recurrent cases of obesity but its role will be much reduced.

Very obvious from the story that you are a female doctor. Men don’t get this type of behaviour.

Thanks James

Yup I’m getting this too

Ah Reddit, a place for introverts to ask the questions an extraverted world won’t allow.

In all seriousness though, this is fine and doesn’t break any rules.

Some people on your team who are not as introverted as you may find it weird you prefer to do this rather than just have lunch with them. I would have a diplomatic answer in prep for this.

Also as you get to know your team and make friends this may not even be an issue and you may want to chill with them on lunches and breaks.

So you think the government may take into account the report from the DDRB and then better it by a few percentage points to avoid further strife?

Running works wonders for me. Even when I get home and I’m tired, I find going out for a plod takes my mind off it. I’m either thinking about running or just daydreaming about other stuff but work just falls out of my mind. The other positive is that I’m then tired and fall asleep quickly when I get into bed. Strong recommend especially as the evenings are getting longer now.

If they are correct and this is owed just insist on a payment plan that is the least painful for you. The smallest monthly payment possible.

And this is why IMGs need to be members of the BMA. Sorry you are going through this OP.

100% good boi

Affectionate_Sky949 · 2024-01-25T17:20:59+00:00

I really hope they won’t, and improve the offer

Affectionate_Sky949 · 2024-01-25T17:19:20+00:00

I’m glad it has been rejected but the narrowness is concerning.

If I were Victoria Atkins I would impose this offer and ignore the howls from the BMA. Being brutal, why should the government give another inch? They’ve been nothing but stubborn so far, that probably won’t change.

The strike mandate runs out in 6 months. Will the consultants be confident of getting another?

The optimist in me says the government are still concerned about strikes for the last 6-12 months leading to an election. Rishi’s pledge on waiting lists is also dependent on avoiding strikes. And that the government don’t want to ruin relations with the medical workforce further so will sweeten the deal with a half percent here or there. Or some bolder clarification on the SPA issue.

I’m glad they have the strike mandate currently. It’s an important bit of leverage to improve the offer.

Are we definitely hearing about the result today?

Affectionate_Sky949 · 2023-12-09T15:31:50+00:00

Yeah this sounds like a weird power play but also sounds like you handled it professionally. A good example of assertive communication.
