let's talk about whether doing medicine is all worth it in the end or not? probably a question that people ask themselves on the more difficult days at worth but tbh actually has a pretty simple answer at the end of the day. I also reflect on maintaining mentors between hospitals and how difficulty it is getting into different specialties. watch me on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@imasperharry

junior doctor reflecting about the life of a doctor dating in medicine, whether it's feasible to have a relationship in medicine and what the considerations are of dating someone in medicine like a doctor.
