    Apr 16 2024

    Hello!

    Over the weekend, you may have spotted that NHS England decommissioned practitioner health services for secondary care doctors.... and then did a U turn yesterday! Good to know that we can all use our voices to collaborate and make change.


    This week's episode explores the sensitive topic of doctors mental health. Our guest this week is someone who bravely and openly shares their experiences on social media.


    It's time to have the conversations that don't always happen.
