An exceptional night at @CorinthiaLondon for @cornwallairamb gala dinner in aid of our #newheliappeal.
@willyoung sang, @PaulAinsw6rth cooked, @alex_polizzi_ made me laugh, @ed_abrahamson invited me & @DrMartinGP kept me company.
A room full of remarkable people. Thank you all.
Unbelievable canapés from the amazing @BreadandHoneyUK - guests loved them, just gutted not to get a photo of the caviar-topped crispy chicken skin! Taste buds...blown 🤯🥳 by @MarkBroadbent67 👨🍳 -- 📸 by… instagram.com/p/B0imlahACEw/… – at Paddington, London

Great piece by @jennirsl on the importance of rest and recuperation time after illness. Something we often miss out on due to work and life pressures. A little bit of rest can pay dividends and get you healthier quicker than a rush back to work!

Could not be more proud of my great friend @imransajid on his TED talk - a thoughtful, intelligent and deeply reflective doctor that anyone would be lucky to have on their side. Wish I could have been there! #TEDxNHS #TooMuchMedicine
Great talk by @imransajid sharing many ideas & thoughts I find myself having more & more frequently:
👉 Healthcare has potential to harm too
👉 We need to recognise & share our limitations
👉 Realistic interventions not defensive ones
👉 Embrace fallibility

The detection of cancers that would never cause harm is overdiagnosis. Patients cannot benefit from the treatment of overdiagnosed tumors, but they may be harmed: prevention.cancer.gov/news-a…

When presented with a treatment, always ask "What would happen if I did nothing?" @AKECassels Challenges & Opportunities in Educating the Public #TooMuchMed #TMM #ChoosingWisely #OverMedicalisation #Helsinki
Finally got the video up of myself and @jonathansamuels discussing a new #allergy test on @SkyNews! Hopefully in use soon, and hopefully giving clearer and more accurate results for #foodallergies and other allergies alike

2/2 contemporary models that blend neuroscience and philosophy are far in advance of what is practices. Pain is a social problem, not a medical problem.
Great little article about the many facets of back pain - "Like all complicated pain, avoiding it, trying to use a substance to blot it out, investing in one person the belief that he or she can cure you: that all makes it worse" @GdnHealthcare
