In this "Giants in Plastic Surgery" episode of the PRS Global Open Deep Cuts Podcast, we speak with Professor Sydney Ch'ng, Professor of Surgery at the University of Sydney and one of the few surgeons fully trained in both head and neck surgery and plastic and reconstructive surgery. Dr Ch'ng reflects on her journey from arriving in Australia as a Malaysian Chinese woman to building a distinguished surgical career across Australia, New Zealand, Asia, and the United States. She shares what it felt like adapting to a new country, how her perspective on fitting in and standing out evolved, and the mentors who shaped her path. We discuss her route through medical school, surgical training, research, fellowships, and her transition into consultant practice, including her experience at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital in Taiwan and MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. Dr Ch'ng also offers insight into the challenges and rewards of combining cancer resection, reconstruction, and aesthetic surgery, and reflects on whether aesthetic training should play a larger role in plastic surgery programs. Beyond surgery, she speaks candidly about mentorship, academic publishing, setting up a practice, life outside medicine, and what it means to build a career with both technical excellence and cultural identity at its center. Your host, Dr. Vimal Gokani, is a senior Specialty Registrar in plastic surgery in London, England. Your producer & editor, Charlene Kok, is a Year 4 Medical Student in Imperial College London, England, with a keen interest in Plastic Surgery. #PRSGlobalOpen #DeepCutsPodcast #PlasticSurgery #GiantsPlasticSurgery

This episode explores the art and responsibility of mentoring medical students in orthopaedic surgery, featuring guest Amiethab Aiyer, MD, FAAOS. Dr. Aiyer, Division Chief of Foot and Ankle Surgery in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Deputy Editor of the Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, and founder of the widely followed OrthoMentor Instagram channel, joins host Ellen Lutnick, MD, AAOS Resident Assembly Executive Committee Chair, for a candid conversation about mentorship at every stage of training. Dr. Aiyer shares his own unexpected path to orthopaedics, pivoting late in medical school after originally planning a career in pediatric oncology, and reflects on how that experience shaped his deep commitment to making himself accessible to students navigating similar crossroads. He draws a meaningful distinction between mentorship, advising, and coaching, and offers practical guidance on how trainees and attendings alike can be more intentional about building those relationships. Listeners will also hear his perspective on what makes a good mentee, the growing role of social media and orthopaedic organizations in connecting students with resources, and why availability and accessibility are among the most important qualities a mentor can offer.

How do you build a pipeline for passionate, well-prepared interventional radiologists from day one of med school? In this episode of the BackTable Podcast, Dr. Aaron Rohr, interventional radiologist and associate professor at the University of Kansas, joins guest host Dr. Jessica Yoon to discuss how IR is accessed, taught, and experienced by medical students throughout their early education. --- Get the BackTable apphttps://www.backtable.com/app --- Timestamps 00:00 - Introduction02:49 - Finding IR: Then and Now06:54 - Challenges of Teaching IR in Core10:07 - How IR Thinks Through Problems14:40 - MAVIRIC Symposium20:09 - Engaging Teaching Models27:26 - Increasing Clinical Presence of IR30:17 - Leadership in Educational Initiatives35:57 - Reflections and Advice for Educators39:15 - Final Thoughts and Closing Remarks --- More about this episode The physicians explore ways in which the transition from traditional fellowship models to integrated IR training pathways has increased the specialty's visibility for early learners while also pointing out obstacles that continue to hinder greater integration of IR into the core medical curriculum. They discuss how IR's involvement in diverse systems and disease processes offers valuable opportunities for comprehensive clinical learning, but simultaneously makes the specialty challenging for students with structured rotations to engage within a longitudinal fashion. Dr. Rohr goes on to highlight the Mid-America Vascular and Interventional Radiology Initiative Collegium (MAVIRIC), a student-led, faculty-supervised program hosted by KUMC that aims to introduce medical students to clinical, technical, and industry-related aspects of IR. He reflects on the effectiveness of hands-on interaction with devices and physicians' demonstration of passion for their practice in piquing student interest. While acknowledging the burden of labor beyond work hours that such initiatives often demand of doctors and students alike, the physicians express their optimism for the growth of IR's presence both in the hospital ecosystem and in the medical curriculum. --- Resources MAVIRIChttps://www.maviric.org/ --- BackTable Vascular & Interventional (VI) is the go-to podcast for interventional radiologists, vascular surgeons, and interventional cardiologists.

Today, we're speaking to Catharina Savelkoul, a DPhil student in Health Economics based at the Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences at the University of Oxford.Title of paper: Factors Influencing UK Medical Students' Choice of General Practice: A Systematic ReviewAvailable at: https://doi.org/10.3399/BJGP.2025.0226The UK faces a projected shortage of approximately 15,000 GPs by 2036/37, with a declining proportion of UK medical graduates pursuing general practice. Previous research has identified various contributing factors but lacked a contemporary synthesis within a coherent theoretical framework. This systematic review examines factors influencing UK medical students' career decisions, finding three critical influences: curricula that inadequately represents general practice, a persistent negative hidden curriculum, and the impact of clinical placement quality. Our revised Bland-Meurer model incorporates these findings, providing a comprehensive framework to improve GP recruitment. This systematic review identifies the factors that shape UK medical students' intentions toward general practice.TranscriptThis transcript was generated using AI and has not been reviewed for accuracy. Please be aware it may contain errors or omissions.Speaker A00:00:01.120 - 00:00:59.530Hi and welcome to BJJP Interviews. I'm Nada Khan, one of the associate editors of the bjjp. Thanks for listening to this podcast today.In today's episode, we're speaking to Katharina Savalcool. Katharina is a DPHIL student in Health Economics based at the Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences at the University of Oxford.We're here today to talk about the paper she's recently published in the BJJP titled Factors Influencing UK Medical Students Choice of General A Systematic Review. So, hi Katharine, it's lovely to meet you and to talk about your work.This is a super interesting area to study because we know that there is a push to increase the number of GPs in practice and I guess that does really start from medical school and people's intentions there. But just to start off, could you talk us through why you decided to do this work and what were you aiming to look at here?Speaker B00:01:00.050 - 00:03:17.090Yeah, of course.So the goal of this piece of research, of the systematic review was to synthesize the empirical evidence on the factors that influence medical students, GP, career intention. Because we know that the general practice is what makes the NHS functions.It handles over 300 million consultations annually, manages the long term, most long term conditions, issues over a billion prescriptions per year. And we also know that healthcare systems with a strong, with strong primary care achieve like, better population health in general.But at the same time, right now the projected shortages for the UK are approximately 15,000 GPs by 2036, which is of course a large number and shows like a workforce crisis. And then if we look at the policy response to this, they've been like quite ambitious but also largely unsuccessful.So for instance, Health Education England mandated that 50% of all new medical graduates should enter general practice. And this target has never been met. The same goes for the NHS long term workforce plan to increase GP training places by 50% to 6,000 places in 2031.And the interesting part about this is that the policy responses are all about setting this goal. Right?It's about, you know, we're shifting, we're shifting care to the community, we're expanding training places, more medical students should become a gp. But that's all. Yeah, setting like these, these, these strategies, but at the end it almost seems like the, we're achieving the reverse.So that, that kind of brought me to the question of if we want to, you know, make sure that we have a healthy primary care workforce, that the general practice avoids this large crisis in the future, then maybe Instead of setting these ambitious goals, we should look into the question of what draws medical students to the general practice and also what are some of the reasons why they might not become a gp?And I think if we zoom into those factors at medical school, during medical education, you get a lot more interesting insights that can actually inform more effective policy. I think that's the kind of. That was the reason I conducted this systematic review.Speaker A00:03:17.970 - 00:03:42.850That's a great summary of what's been going on with GP recruitment in the past little while in terms of policy and the push to increase the number of gps. And this was, as you mentioned, a systematic review that followed pretty conventional review processes.But I wonder if you could tell us a bit about this bland mirror model. It's a framework used in terms of organizing the results and how this informed how you structured the results.Speaker B00:03:43.990 - 00:04:47.410Yeah, I think it's for this specific research question, looking into factors that influence decision making.I decided to look up different theoretical frameworks in order to understand this, because decision making at the end of the days is, of course, something that's influenced by many things at the same time.This model specifically, which was, I think first published in 1995, helped a lot with like, systematically categorizing the findings because it identified three principal domains. One is the student characteristics, such as, like, personal values, maybe personality traits. The second one is the specialty characteristics.So what is the. What are the professional opportunities? And the third one is, like, the influences during medical school.And I think if those are the three kind of domains we saw in this across these, like, 30 years of research, and I think it was the most useful way to kind of theorize these factors.Speaker A00:04:48.210 - 00:05:01.970Great.So I guess just talk us through what you found, and I suppose it might be helpful to just talk through the different aspects of that model you've just described. So what were the sort of student characteristics that you found in the literature that influenced and informed specialty choice?Speaker B00:05:02.640 - 00:06:37.050Yeah, so I think the findings from this came from different types of studies.I think the largest ones were the ones that used a data set called UK met, which kind of has the data on all UK medical students in such demographic variables, but also more information about their educational performance in medical school.And I think these studies showed us like, the kind of the social, demographic, individual characteristics that are associated with a higher likelihood of pursuing a career in a general practice. And then there's these smaller studies which kind of like looked at personal preferences and personality traits.And I think that that's another really interesting question. Right. Because about this, like, specialty choice and Kind of individual preferences, personality traits.A lot of international research is talking about altruism or do people who enjoy social contact more, are they more likely to become gps?And I think this type of research is quite undeveloped in terms of the UK literature, but it was still interesting to look at it and compare it to different studies. And I think for the demographic factors we saw specifically that female students were more likely to choose gender practice graduates on entry.So age was another one we saw. Yeah, so there's like these different kind of demographic factors or personality traits that seem to predispose you to career in a general practice.Speaker A00:06:37.290 - 00:06:51.930And what about the characteristics of the specialty itself or working in general practice specifically that drew some medical students to think about it. So these are potentially medical students looking at gps and thinking, oh, I want that lifestyle or I don't or I want that work. Really? Yeah.Speaker B00:06:52.150 - 00:07:48.350On this question, first of all, a lot has changed recently.So I think work life balance was something that was mentioned in like the earlier studies, but right now it has changed so much that that's almost like not something we can, yeah, we can use anymore.But another interesting one, and I think one that we should really take seriously, is that a lot of one of the things that draws students to the general practice is the like, long term patient relationships. So continuity of care.And of course right now with the landscape changing and specifically like the prioritization of access over continuity of care, it might be important to kind of, you know, reconsider those changes in light of the fact that a lot of medical students decide on a career in a general practice because of this like continuity of care aspect that's so unique to primary care. So I think that's another really important one.Speaker A00:07:48.990 - 00:08:13.560Yeah, I can definitely relate to that.I think one of the reasons I figured out that general practice was for me was that when I was working in A E, I would flag all the patients I'd seen and clarked in and then wanted to know what happened in their...
Dave and his M1 co-hosts Lily Schmidt, Melia Patrick, Jonah Albrecht, and Anna Royer, take a field trip to Reddit's AITA sub— because self-reflection is not usually how people figure out if they're the problem. Four posts, four verdicts, and get genuinely sidetracked in the best way: there's a chlamydia anecdote Dave shares, a philosophical debate about whether watching movies at 2.5x speed makes you a bad partner, and a surprisingly earnest conversation about what med students actually owe their families when they become the designated "medical person" in the room. And (med school parents, take note) a doctor-mom posts about telling her struggling pre-med daughter she isn't cut out for medicine--and Reddit tears her a ne...helps her understand why that's not the best approach.
The number of medical students wanting to pursue general practice is dropping, according to annual surveys by the Medical Students' Association. Its president, Divyashri Thakkar spoke to John Campbell.

"Weight neutral healthcare will allow people to access healthcare in a non-stigmatized and welcoming way, and will be treated the same as a patient of any body size."Have you ever walked into a doctor's office excited about your progress with intuitive eating, only to leave questioning everything after your doctor brought the conversation back to your weight? You're not alone. In this episode, I'm joined by Jackie Liu, a third-year medical student at Harvard and co-advocacy lead for Medical Students for Size Inclusivity (MSSI). Together, we unpack what weight-neutral healthcare really looks like, why it matters, and how weight stigma impacts your ability to trust your body. We also explore the power dynamics in medical settings and share practical ways to advocate for yourself and find more supportive care so you can leave guilt and shame behind.✅ What You'll Learn:How weight neutral healthcare differs from the weight-focused appointments we're so used toWhy the healthcare system's view of bodies isn't the absolute truth, and why your body is not the problemThe impact weight stigma and anti-fat bias have on your willingness to seek care (and your self-blame)What it actually looks like to walk into a weight neutral appointment, and real-life examples you can use to advocate for yourselfThe shift happening among medical students and healthcare providers who are questioning the status quo
Soon, medical students at Trinity College will be assessed not only on clinical competence, but also on their capacity for empathy and compassionate care.But how do you define and evaluate such human qualities in a clinical setting?Joining Seán to discuss is Dr Brendan O'Shea, Kildare GP and Assistant Adjunct Professor in General Practice at Trinity College.
What happens when medical students witness dehumanization during clinical rotations but feel too powerless to speak up? Kathleen Muldoon, a certified coach and professor in medical education, joins the show to unpack why moral courage is a skill you can practice right now, not something to defer until you hold a title. Based on her KevinMD article "Moral courage in medical training: the power of the powerless," this conversation reveals how the hidden curriculum in medical training quietly normalizes harm through small, unreported moments. You will hear practical strategies for reclaiming power in clinical hierarchies, from stating your own name to recentering a patient in grand rounds with a single clarifying question. Muldoon explains why kicking moral concerns down the line fuels burnout and erodes professional identity formation, and how attendings can foster psychological safety by modeling vulnerability. If you are a medical student, resident, or physician who has ever felt the gap between what health care should be and what it is, this episode will remind you that middle power is still power.

The Hippocratic oath moment that turns anxious students into future physicians—even before they’ve treated a single patient You’re on stage at the “White Coat Ceremony,” putting on that short coat for the first time, and honestly? It feels kind of weird. Like you’re playing dress-up in someone else’s costume. That’s where M1s Jonah Albrecht, Anna Royer, Lillian Schmidt, and Lillie Lamont pick up the conversation—because turns out, that awkward feeling might be telling you something important about what this weird garment actually means (and might not mean) in medicine. This episode gets real about white coat symbolism beyond the ceremony photo-op. Our M1 hosts dig into medical student identity, physician hierarchy, the whole clinical attire debate, and whether that coat actually helps with patient trust in healthcare or just makes you feel like an imposter. You’ll hear honest takes on medical professionalism, imposter syndrome medicine, what medical school training teaches you about fitting in, and why healthcare team collaboration might work better without all the hierarchical costume drama. Plus: we adapt the amazing Codenames game–can Lillie’s favorite game reveal anything about med school chaos? If you’re wondering whether you’ll ever feel like you belong in that coat—or whether that particular outer covering is a good idea—hit play.

Medical students and residents work side by side every day—but they often experience the same environment in completely different ways. Through honest stories and shared experiences, Lilly, Sanila, and Austen reflect on the unique dynamic between medical students and residents during clinical training. From the student perspective, there is pressure to perform, contribute, and prove you belong. From the resident side, it is about managing patients, staying afloat, and teaching at the same time. Somewhere in the middle of those competing priorities is where real learning happens.

We are soooooooo back! It's our FAVORITE time of the year: ABORTION PROVIDER APPRECIATION WEEK! Abortion Provider Day is on March 10th. It was started in memory of Dr. David Gunn, who was murdered by an anti-abortion extremist in 1993.

The Heart Wants What It Wants. In this Valentine’s Day episode, four medical students sit down to play the ultimate compatibility game—answering questions their partners answered about them ahead of time. From whether they’re optimists or realists about med school (some hedging here), to what their dens would look like as animals (things got weird), these spouses and significant others prove they actually know their medical students pretty well. Mostly. There’s a Punsesee…Puncsa…Punxsutawney Phil appearance, some passionate love for hobby farms, and one unfortunate name mix-up to kick off the whole episode. Whether you’re a pre-med wondering how people maintain relationships during the madness of medical school, or you just want to hear some genuinely funny banter about med school couples, M1 Anna Royer and M2s Samantha Gardner, Sarah Upton, and Alexis Baker (and spouses Nathan, Nick, Kyle, and Caleb–er, Cade) are here for you. You’ll hear how these medical students actually talk to their partners about school (spoiler: sometimes too much about bones), what they’d do with more time in their day, and why you should never ask a them to draw your portrait. It’s proof that love can absolutely survive medical education.

more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2026-02-12-23-34-02-hu Story Transcript:Hu: Hófúvás verte a sátorlapokat, miközben a szél zúgása körbejárta a hóborította mezőt.En: Snow gusts battered the tent flaps while the roar of the wind swept around the snow-covered field.Hu: A terepi kórház, ideiglenesen felhúzva ezen a zord téli tájon, élénk tevékenységek helyszíne volt.En: The field hospital, temporarily set up in this harsh winter landscape, was a site of lively activities.Hu: Bence, a szorgalmas orvostanhallgató, épp egy beteg állapotát vizsgálta az egyik sátorban.En: Bence, the diligent medical student, was examining a patient's condition in one of the tents.Hu: Az arca koncentrált volt, de fáradtság érződött a tekintetében.En: His face was focused, but fatigue showed in his eyes.Hu: Réka, a tapasztalt ápoló, odalépett hozzá.En: Réka, the experienced nurse, approached him.Hu: "Bence, sok új páciens érkezett," mondta aggódva.En: "Bence, many new patients have arrived," she said worriedly.Hu: "Nagy szükség van rád.En: "You're really needed."Hu: " Bence bólintott, bár fejében csak a közelgő vizsga járt.En: Bence nodded, though his mind was preoccupied with the upcoming exam.Hu: A záróvizsgák az orvosi kar legnehezebb állomásai voltak, és a várva várt ösztöndíj elnyerése mindent megérne neki.En: The final exams were the toughest hurdles at the medical faculty, and winning the coveted scholarship was worth everything to him.Hu: A vizsgálatok során Bence elmerült a betegek állapotának elemzésében.En: During the examinations, Bence was immersed in analyzing the patients' conditions.Hu: A betegek között volt Marcell is, az egykori futballista, akit lábtörés miatt kezeltek.En: Among the patients was Marcell, the former football player, who was being treated for a leg fracture.Hu: "Hogy van ma, Marcell?En: "How are you today, Marcell?"Hu: " kérdezte Bence.En: Bence asked.Hu: Marcell mosolyogva válaszolt: "Jobban, köszönöm.En: Marcell replied with a smile, "Better, thank you.Hu: A múlt héten nehezebb volt.En: Last week was harder."Hu: " Később Bence visszatért a jegyzeteihez.En: Later, Bence returned to his notes.Hu: Megpróbált tanulni, de a betegek folyamatosan érkeztek, és a sürgős esetek nem vártak.En: He attempted to study, but the continuous arrival of patients and urgent cases couldn't wait.Hu: A dilemma nőtt Bence szívében: tanuljon vagy segítsen?En: The dilemma grew in Bence's heart: study or help?Hu: Most fontosabbnak tűnt, hogy a jelenben cselekedjen.En: It seemed more important now to act in the present.Hu: Ahogy a nap az ég aljára süllyedt, váratlanul megérkezett egy újabb betegáradat.En: As the sun dipped below the horizon, an unexpected influx of patients arrived.Hu: Az orvosok és ápolók feszített tempóban dolgoztak, és Bencére is nagyobb teher hárult.En: The doctors and nurses worked at a relentless pace, and Bence faced a heavier burden.Hu: Az idő sürgetett, és a helyzet válságosra fordult.En: Time was pressing, and the situation turned critical.Hu: Előlépett, hogy több feladatot vegyen át, bízva a tanulmányaiból nyert tudásában és a gyakorlati tapasztalatban, amit az itt töltött idő alatt szerzett.En: He stepped forward to take on more tasks, trusting in his knowledge from studies and the practical experience gained during his time there.Hu: A reggel első sugarai áttörték az éjszaka sötétjét, amikor végül lecsillapodott a zűrzavar.En: The first rays of morning pierced the night's darkness when the chaos finally subsided.Hu: Bence megállt, fáradtan, de elégedetten.En: Bence stood tired but satisfied.Hu: Az orvosok és a személyzet is elismerően nézett rá.En: The doctors and staff looked at him approvingly.Hu: Réka odament hozzá, enyhén megveregetve a vállát.En: Réka came over, gently patting his shoulder.Hu: "Bence, ezt nagyon jól csináltad," mondta mosolyogva.En: "Bence, you did very well," she said with a smile.Hu: "Mindenki látta, milyen elkötelezett és tehetséges vagy.En: "Everyone saw how dedicated and talented you are."Hu: " Bence megkönnyebbült, és bár tudta, hogy a tanulás miatt aggódnia kell, a bizalom benne növekedett.En: Bence felt relieved, and although he knew he had to worry about studying, his confidence grew.Hu: Aznap este az egyik felügyelője, aki a vizsgáztató bizottság tagja is volt, odaült mellé.En: That evening, one of his supervisors, who was also a member of the examining committee, sat down next to him.Hu: "Lehet, hogy nem tanultál annyit, amennyit szerettél volna," kezdte a felügyelő, "de olyan tudást mutattál, amit nem lehet könyvekből megszerezni.En: "You may not have studied as much as you would have liked," the supervisor began, "but you showed knowledge that can't be gained from books.Hu: Megérdemled az ösztöndíjat.En: You deserve the scholarship."Hu: " A hó csendesen hullott, elmosva a fárasztó nap nyomait.En: The snow fell quietly, washing away the traces of the tiring day.Hu: Az égbolt feketéje alatt Bence ráeszmélt, hogy a siker nemcsak a tanulásból, hanem az igazi élettapasztalatokból is származik.En: Under the black sky, Bence realized that success comes not only from studying but also from real-life experiences.Hu: Boldog volt, hogy figyelemmel és szeretettel segíthetett másokon.En: He was happy to have helped others with attention and care.Hu: És ez volt a legfontosabb tanulság.En: And that was the most important lesson.

SummaryIn this episode, Sean Weiss and Terry Fletcher discuss the new year and the importance of compliance in healthcare. They highlight the upcoming legislative changes affecting telehealth, the roles of medical students, and the challenges of documentation and accountability in healthcare practices. The conversation emphasizes the need for proper training, understanding of roles, and the importance of doing the right thing in healthcare to avoid risks and ensure compliance.TakeawaysJanuary 30th is a critical date for telehealth funding.Medical students have limited roles compared to licensed providers.Documentation must be accurate and compliant with regulations.Providers must personally perform key components of services.Using medical students for billing can lead to compliance issues.Training and understanding roles are essential in healthcare.Fraud and abuse can result in significant penalties.Healthcare providers must be proactive in audits and compliance.Integrity in healthcare is crucial, even when not being watched.Proper billing practices are necessary to avoid legal repercussions.
