UK Academic GP Registrar in my third year of GP training. I am interested in how effective safety-netting strategies using conventional and novel methods can educate and protect patients, carers, doctors and health organisations. I am a strong believer in #ResearchForEveryone and #OpenAccess. My academic career aim is to merge high quality research with rapid service evaluation to minimise the delay between meaningful research and real-time quality improvement. I enjoy and find it a great privilege to practise clinical medicine. I am currently finishing my MRCGP training in Bristol, having qualified in 2015 after 6 years at Cardiff University.
