I’ve even quiet on this platform for a while as have been travelling around remote parts of Alaska on a Churchill Fellowship learning about how they deliver rural healthcare. Will share insights from the trip over coming weeks, but spending my last evening here at a CRAFT NIGHT at the local cinema!

After 2 weeks of living my best medical life on Hoy, I’m flying to Edinburgh then spending most of the day on a train… which means (signal permitting) I’ll finally compete my mandatory training… working across 2 unis and the NHS in 2 countries means there’s a LOT of it 🙄😂
