Very sad news. Ian did sterling work to ease difficulties between the specialties of plastics and OMFS, and gave very sensible and pragmatic opinions on RCSEng council. A great loss to surgery-in-general. RIP Ian.
Shocked to hear this very sad news. Ian was a loyal supporter and gave great service to his specialty of OMFS and the College. He will be hugely missed.

Delighted that @HunterianLondon, opening on Tuesday 16th, was on @haveigotnews . There is so much more to see than ‘pickled penises’!
Tonight’s #HIGNFY is hosted by @missdianemorgan, with panellists @destheray and @MattChorley joining Ian and Paul. BBC One at 9pm (also on iPlayer)

This is a must-read piece by @mancunianmedic on @bmj_latest discussing his experience during COVID and walking away from his time as @RCPhysicians President

And a letter from the CMOs and other national leaders has gone to Trusts asking them to give leave for national training work, specifically mentioning exams. So hopefully professional leave will be easier to get.
It’s important that our Court of Examiners is diverse and representative. Please consider applying and spread the word! #womeninsurgery #ILookLikeASurgeon

Many examiners step down this year and next, so please consider applying. Your contribution to training our future surgeons will be invaluable, and being part of the Court is very enjoyable as well.
We're looking for fellows to join our Court of Examiners and help develop the surgical profession. You will gain full training and further your professional development. Find out more: ow.ly/z4Xa50JlqHy

An amazing occasion and a wonderful opportunity to showcase the amazing #WomenInSurgery we have at RCS England.
Thank you to Dame Clare Marx for continuing to advocate for our profession and for the College.
My boss in the 1980s allowed me a Wednesday off to get married providing I was at his list the next day! I did both, and no regrets - what he taught me surgically made all the strictures of that time worthwhile.
I worked for a prof in 1980 who had grand round meetings every Saturday which u had to attend, whether on holiday or not! There was no shortage of creepy “type As” happy to comply for the prestige. When he retired they were all moved out by the new guy! 😟

You also learn it as a junior hospital doctor - grab it whenever and wherever you can. A flat casualty trolley works well.
Sleep is admin.
One of the most important things you learn in the army is the ability to sleep anywhere.

Terrible. Graeme is one of the really good guys, and has done so much for his patients, and for the specialty locally, nationally and internationally. Wishing him a full and speedy recovery, and my thoughts for his family.
Statement: We are shocked and appalled by the unwarranted and brutal attack on one of our colleagues and Past Presidents, Graeme Perks, in his own home

It was going strong in 1981 when I first went to East Grinstead
Question to all my fellow burns & plastics colleagues 'What year was the origional inception of the British Association of Plastic Surgery Nurses?' (BAPSN)

Many Thanks 🌈
Very well deserved for all you have done for the specialty, and hopefully will continue to do.
It has been my honour and pleasure to serve as the first International Board Member of @ASPSMembers. @ASPS_News
