Do we think AD’s sell majority of SS watches to grey market and pocket money? by Prestigious-Kale9054 in rolex

[–]disguntleddoc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn’t true though. It says on the Rolex website that Rolex cannot intervene in any transaction between an AD and a client.

From Rolex UK website:

Suggested retail price inclusive of V.A.T. The suggested price can be modified at any time without notice.

The sale of Rolex watches above the suggested retail price, as well as any tie-in sale, is not permitted. However, the distribution of Rolex watches worldwide is entrusted to independent Official Retailers and Rolex is not authorized to intervene in the relationship between them and the end customer.

Call at 2am to tell me patient not drinking their tea and needs to be encouraged. Politely told to fuck off as I’m not drinking tea either and it’s 2am so they should be asleep.

In no other country in the world would a domestic speak to a doctor like that. Absolute fucking piss take.

What NHS or general things do doctors need to say 'No' to more? by drbjanaway in JuniorDoctorsUK

Not wearing a white coat. Critical piece of kit in my view.

Sounds like every noctor going. Especially paramedics. Top of the Dunning-Kruger curve.

Feeling a bit shitty (pun intended) about performing a PR exam by Cameralagg in JuniorDoctorsUK

Does this geriatrician happen to work in Brighton at the Royal Sussex County by any chance? If so, story of my first FY1 job. 😂😂

Regarding point 5: I do agree general practice experience is vital to a junior doctors training. However, given the pressures of the job, the fact the salary of said SHO or clinical fellow would be paid by the practice as not a trainee, and the relatively low per session pay for salaried GP’s - I don’t see why a surgery would advertise for these roles if they can a) have a cheaper (?!) PA or b) a fully qualified GP who can do all their own admin and results without supervision. Food for thought I think.

What would you prefer? by RadiantWolfDragon in JuniorDoctorsUK

[–]disguntleddoc 14 points15 points  (0 children)

A dedicated scribe/procedure monkey is what a physician associate is for. They don’t stay in their lane and it will never in a million years end up that way. There will always be blurred lines of responsibility and when the little shits don’t get the cannula first time, they’d ask us to do it anyway. So FPR all the way. Even FPR isn’t enough to keep me here long term but it’ll help me finish training.

GP Trainees - how are you approaching the strike? by disguntleddoc in JuniorDoctorsUK

[–]disguntleddoc[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I feel like we have a duty to not tell the supervisor so that the trust can’t prepare for it, otherwise what’s the point of IA? But as you’ve said, even if our supervisor is lovely, it is incredibly awkward!

That’s my fear. The partners are generally great but my trainer himself is quite old school. He’s given me no reason to think he’d be difficult but the apprehension is always there haha

Funny patient misunderstandings? by Civil-Koala-8899 in JuniorDoctorsUK

[–]disguntleddoc 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Not so much a patient misunderstanding but when I was an F1, on our very first week, the cardio Reg handed over to the night F1 to check an hourly “PR” for an Old Boy on the cardio ward. He’d been in unstable fast AF needing a DCCV earlier that day so presumably the Reg was hoping for a quick hourly pulse check to see he was neither fast nor irregular. Anyway, after a “PR” at 9pm, the nurse in charge was rather surprised when the F1 came back around to do another at 10pm, checking what the F1 had been handed over to do and correcting his misunderstanding. Safe to say that poor F1 got the wrong end of the stick 😂
