    Amazing achievement by my friend and colleague. He has been awarded an MBE for bringing endoscopy services to Sierra Leone. Focussed hard work and all in his own time. Well Dr David Nylander MBE!!!

    This is simply nuts right? Our place uses this provider but the estates or parking people can ask them to cancel the fines. Either they need to extend to 0900 or you leave at 0815. Get support from Ed sup or HOD.

    Struggling to sleep. Daughter had an operation today for #IBD and am amazed as ever at her resilience. It’s hard to see your kid in pain (even tho she’s 20). It’s also hard not to be there. Too many things going through my mind. Just wanting her to be better…

    1. There was guidance that states ERCP is not for nurses (2008) 2. There is so much more to this story 3. I was part of the Royal college team that investigated and this was Swiss cheese squared 4. There is now a new clinical endoscopist document from BSG stating exactly this.

    When are we as endoscopists going to let the world know that this is actually a real thing?? #puddingstomach

    Big big kudos. My daughter (20) had a subtotal colectomy over Christmas and just spent a few days away. Because of people like you she feels comfortable wearing her bikini with her ileostomy bag visible. This is truly one of the best things about social media. Thank you.
