First audiobook of the year is Ministry of atone by @kalianebradley5.bsky.social. Only 2 and a bit hours in, but it’s shaping up to be a corker. Wonderful prose and an addictive story.

Lord Toby Harris stepping down from the GDC is… interesting. Who’s next for the poison chalice?

πŸŽ‰ My latest for the BDJ looks at how we balance patient autonomy with professional judgement when patients have β€˜done their research’ and are rejecting conventional care.

Practitioner autonomy is important as well. We shouldn’t feel pressured into carrying out treatment that isn’t in the best interest of the patient.

An excellent analysis of a complex situation @shaunsellars.bsky.social
Curious: Thoughts when patients are aware of their rights, but not so aware of the clinician's duty of care, best practice guidelines & the potential liability issues that might arise out of suggesting 'traditional' Rx methods?

It should be. I work at Colin’s place now, which makes things much easier. And we’ve recorded a new episode. It’s just a case of scheduling. We’re both super busy.
