    Listening to @wendyburn giving the Presidential address at #RCPsychIC in B’ham. couldn’t be prouder to be a Psychiatrist. Where else would we be talking of neuroscience, social determinants of health & the value of therapeutic relationships with equal emphasis? #ChoosePsychiatry

    A great privilege to be appointed Medical Director at @LPFTNHS Complicated emotions- a sense of anticipation and responsibility for the new role at a well performing Trust and feelings of loss at leaving my fantastic @DWbetter2gether colleagues

    Sorry for the plain speaking but your comments are incredibly insulting when you describe valued colleagues as just workers. A decision to strike is an individual one but you can’t be unaware of the levels of staff demoralisation & frustration as a whole including Consultants

    Irrespective of views &🗳️in the recent #AGM @rcpsych please reach out to #SAS colleagues, #affiliates & colleagues affected by the results. Emotions are raw, feeling undervalued & othered at a time of significant work pressures for all is hard. You are not alone @RCPsychSASdocs
