On day two, I met Dr. Jarad who is
a consultant respiratory physician. We spent the morning in the respiratory
department and I had a chance to see how Dr. Jarad supervised some of the
younger doctors who were also on the ward. It was nice to see how he was able
to support them with their decision making and act as a tutor to those less
experienced than himself.
After this, we went across the road where we spent
the afternoon in his hot clinic. In this service it was very interesting to see
how Dr. Jarad tailored his skills amongst his patients depending on for example
their age. He was able to discharge his patients with a management plan that he
had drawn up for them after examination.
It was interesting to gain another
day of experience in a completely different field of medicine, and I was very
much looking forward to my final day at the BRI where I would be shadowing an
F1 doctor which I shall write about soon!
Cheers!
Sam
