Looking forward to attending the BGS spring meeting this week (Admittedly virtually due to childcare)

Curious to see the trauma updates, especially as hoping to get a Hector course set up locally

The team survived the med/surgical combo of myself & @drtallu this morning
I stood back & watched a surgeon discuss bisphosphonates flawlessly 👌🏽👏🏽👏🏽

The team got their MacDs as reward of surviving my WR😂
I will get my ☕️ before the day is out!
