50,000 opportunities to support better diabetes foot care for people with dark skin tones.
Better understanding of how diabetes-related foot complications present in dark skin tones could help prevent avoidable complications, including limb loss.

Wow! Truly honoured to be recognised in this way. Wonderful to also see such talent within our profession being celebrated. Huge congratulations to all winners and (exceptional) finalists.

Excellent post from @mancunianmedic
There is a definite place for non-medical ‘advanced’ clinicians (I personally don’t like the term practitioner- it is meaningless to patients). If you want to cover the medical rotas- go study medicine and become a doctor. Trusts take heed.

BBC News: Keir Starmer and Wes Streeting are trying to bribe doctors to call off next weeks strike, by saying that if they don't extra training places won't be created
Just to be clear, these aren't 'extra' training places, these are training places
And if the general public understood the meaning of this, they would be standing alongside doctors striking
Never thought I'd be as disgusted with Labour as I was disgusted with the Conservatives, but here we are

“The NHS needs every doctor it can get. But we now inhabit a world where doctors are unemployed. It’s madness. Please, @wesstreeting, do not be the health secretary in post while doctors are unemployed & signing on with Uber shifts. You do not want to be that person. Any health secretary in that position is doing something terribly wrong.”
Did you know 20,000 young NHS doctors face not getting a training post this summer?
That some are already unemployed - when the NHS needs every doctor it can possibly get.
@DHSCgovuk needs to fix this immediately, now - it's a workforce debacle of monumental proportions & it's harming our patients.
Thank you @lspencerelliot & @Independent for covering this hugely important issue today.
