A great day learning, reflecting and catching up with colleagues. Admittedly my brain feels rather full now! Glad it’s the weekend & time to spend with family! Thanks to @btog.bsky.social for putting on a great study day

Last night hosting the @crxeate.bsky.social drs poetry event was just magical. A wonderful evening of words, connection & creativity. Thinking of hosting a regular open mic night for medics now!

I wrote this last year. It’s good to look ahead and feel hopeful but sometimes it’s also ok to take each day as it comes, even each moment! #happynewyear

I’m talking about my fave books of 2024 & books I want to read next year on this amazing podcast, accompanied by some other great people talking about their recommendations too. Definitely worth a listen! Go check out @bedsidereading.bsky.social

reading some more of Danielle Ofri’s excellent book ‘What doctors feel’ Really admire her honesty talking about the fear drs live with. Appreciated this section when she talks about the challenges of missing diagnoses in patients with multiple symptoms. And that ultimately we will make mistakes.

What are you all reading over the festive period? I’m deep into this book which is rather unsettling but very addictive!

I’m currently reading this incredible book after hearing her on Rangan Chatterjee’s podcast. I loved her other book The Choice. A lot to take from this personally but also think this would be beneficial to many of our patients.

I’ve realised it’s one year ago today that I started my first job as a consultant. And what a year it has been! Think it might be a good opportunity to reflect on what I have learnt so far! (And I don’t just mean the complexities of lung cancer treatment!)

For those of you that don’t already know I’m an avid reader: I love all formats: audio, ebooks & actually paper books. Here’s what I read in November. Overall feel 2024 has not been a great reading year. But let’s see what December is get to bring!

We would love to get your help choosing our next book - it’s the turn of something medically related - this can be fiction/ non-fiction/ memoir. Something with a medic in it, or a medical event, can be serious/ fun. All and every option considered! Let us know your suggestions!

Let's talk about the phrase "Trainee in difficulty" because I hate it. Mainly because I was one... Labelled. Othered. Shamed. Lumped in a box with other doctors navigating challenges of many kinds. We need a system with compassion. One that cares & supports. Language matters. #MedSky

I’m currently reading the book on my library app. So far it’s brilliant. Considers how drs are infallible, how we feel too. Lots of nuggets in here on empathy, emotions, communication skills.

Dr Nicola Davis @drnicoladavis.bsky.social · 23/11/2024

Ooh I love the idea of doing similar at an oncology conference Project for @crxeate.bsky.social maybe?

Dr Nicola Davis @drnicoladavis.bsky.social · 23/11/2024

Go give my amazing friends excellent podcast a follow, glad she’s brought it over here!

I wrote this poem 2 years ago & after a long day in clinic today I can confirm it still feels like this. In fact I think there is another poem in me that I need to write to reflect on how tough this job is.
