“If it wasn’t for Leicester Insight, I would have left medical school not knowing how to think.” Great feedback for us from a current ACCS CT1, but highlights there’s still work to do on explicit #clinicalreasoning teaching in undergraduate curricula @UK_CReME @ImproveDX #MedEd

Congratulations to @AstonMedicine on graduating their first cohort of doctors!
So proud of our new doctors - the first from Aston Medical School. Has been a privilege to contribute. Was great to meet families and supporters. So much hard work, and sacrifices. On the 75th anniversary of the NHS - gives me hope for the future.

6 years later, proud to say I’m finally Dr Pranav Ramesh MBChB (Hons) MSc (Dist). It goes without saying that this wouldn’t have been possible without my friends, family and peers supporting me. Thank you to everyone who helped me along the way!
