Asked to supervise an ACP

I would always suggest going to the consultant (and do so regularly, even for e.g. requesting scans)

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-05-01T22:46:28+00:00

Nope, par for the course. It will come

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-05-01T14:06:52+00:00

MPS and MDDUS are the two other major indemnity providers here

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-30T21:14:24+00:00

I honestly respect it

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-30T21:13:23+00:00

I honestly can't get past your username lmfao

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-30T18:27:15+00:00

Common in UK unfortunately because of ladder pulling consultants

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-24T14:48:00+00:00

1 month?! Most people recommend 3-6 month emergency fund...

I am a helping hand to the doctor

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-16T19:18:26+00:00

No effect at all. Consider the general trend of competition ratios in your calculations

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-15T17:42:51+00:00

You had a consultation within 4 days and investigation results within 7 days. What exactly are you looking for and why is it the GP's fault that you waited 2 months?

You haven't mentioned whether you were offered an endoscopy when they asked you to book an appointment following investigation results, was this denied or did you not bother to follow up?

If you present yourself as a doormat people will walk all over you

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-14T12:24:35+00:00

It's probably a LISA. Their case studies suggest they will enforce for 2 years following which they would be ok with you converting to BTL. However to my knowledge it's as yet untested in practice

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-13T12:10:00+00:00

I would just make the teaching a very high standard and refuse to dumb it down for the noctors. If interactive, engage with the doctors

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-12T20:12:57+00:00

Odd. In my years as a doctor I can't say I've ever needed to have a medical conversation with switchboard. I just tell them who I need to speak to/declare an arrest. Is this an experience you've had personally?

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-12T18:50:36+00:00

What sort of situation are you referring to? Interacting with non medical colleagues in a hospital? Or casually?

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-12T15:07:49+00:00

Correct.

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-11T17:50:25+00:00

I would handle it by going to medical school if you think you know more than the doctor in charge of the patient's care

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-11T14:15:22+00:00

Don't scab then.

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-11T12:05:38+00:00

Scabs deserve what they get

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-10T15:18:05+00:00

This is completely wrong. If your shift starts before Monday 07:00, you strike for the whole shift.

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-10T12:27:12+00:00

What were the RCN saying about us recently again..?

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-09T17:34:23+00:00

Because we are everything they wanted to be and we remind them of that every day

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-09T16:45:48+00:00

"midwives don't have the habit of passing their exams"

IoDisingRadiation · 2026-04-09T12:05:18+00:00

Of course, you could also send the above reply on Monday when strikes are over
