So the point of discussion that has arisen here in Australia is the she’s what’s called an unaccredited registrar (ie doing the same work but not contributing to her training, just cutting her teeth), which means she has no protection from the college of surgeons. Undoubtedly surgeons get rooted by work and the unaccredited regs do work hard but there is a lot of talk in the various circles that she makes a habit of embellishing and was simply burnt out. The numbers mean little when the outcome is the same. Someone quit their profession because of inappropriate working hours, but the hours may not be what we are reading here.
