    Looks like acanthosis nigricans. Can be related to type 2 DM so possible underlying NAFLD?!??

    Our first ever Junior Doctor of the Year is Dr Gio Sheiybani, whose colleagues say she is a pleasure to have on the team and will be a fabulous asset to any hospital. Congratulations Dr Sheiybani! #teamgloshospitals

    So after talking to @PearsonVUE, they are unable to accommodate me to express somewhere in the centre. I would like to ask @RCPL_trainees @RCPhysicians why they outsource to a company that cannot provide the basics for female doctors in an exam that only happens annually? (1/2)
    Very disappointed that I am being told @PearsonVUE cannot accommodate for me to express milk for my 12 week old when sitting the #ESEGH. Delaying exam by an 1hr isn't really good enough (1/2)

    Hearing that the @RCP are not able to accommodate #breastfeeding for an exam. We have plenty of doctor mums - need to seriously improve this! How are we supposed to get equality if this cannot be done? Urgently needs attention! @TheBMA @BMA_JuniorDocs @RCPL_trainees

    Enjoying 2 weeks of our lovely baby boy who was delivered @gloshospitals on 29th Jan. They were amazing and will never forget the kindness of the midwife (Ellen) who facilitated a beautiful birth at the birth unit.

    On a positive note about planning rotas, our med director @gloshospitals has had very open chats with the juniors and has listened to us. It has led to a truly collaborative approach in managing what will be another tough period for everyone. It can be done!

    By some absolute miracle, I have managed to pass the #ESEGH whilst dealing with a newborn! No more exams ever again hopefully! 🙌

    Just as an update - I have been back at work since March. I have had lots of black women compliment my hair and one saying I have given her the confidence to go natural. Wearing my natural hair has been freeing and feel proud of it! Thank you all for your support!

    This is probably a bit out there but he has a malar flush which is likely mitral stenosis. Possible endocarditis from strep bovis with underlying colorectal cancer
