It’s easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle: a Christian challenge to the NHS ‘COVID pay rise’
I was rather challenged by Georgie Coster’s heartfelt blog in August on the lack of a pay rise for nurses and other NHS staff in the recent, ‘post COVID’ pay awards. I am one of those ‘hard-working’ Consultants who deserved (according to the BMA and several Royal Colleges at least) this pay rise from the […]
Reflecting God’s image or usurping his position?
For as long as humans have been keeping records, they have been recording their fight against the ultimate enemy – death. Up until a certain point in history, every new advance in technology was aimed at postponing the hour when the grim reaper would come calling. Clothes and shelter so we didn’t freeze to death, […]
The violence of abortion and the domestic abuse bill
It was 1998. I was a young medical intern working in a small hospital in an Indian village. I had looked forward to being posted there as it was meant to be a ‘rest period’ after many sleepless months of working in surgery and hospital medicine. One morning a young lady attended our clinic with […]
Altruistic kidney donation – the opportunities and challenges
Giving a kidney can be one of the greatest gifts one can offer to another person. The first successful human kidney allograft was carried out between the identical Herrick twins in Boston in 1954, Ronald giving a kidney to Richard and in so doing becoming the world’s first living organ donor. Richard lived another eight […]
How Christians can end the waiting list for a kidney Â
When I gave my kidney in 2019, it felt like a simple decision: someone might die without a kidney whilst I had a spare. Far from seeing it as the epitome of saintly generosity, I was convicted that it was an effective way of doing good and glorifying God. By giving a kidney, I enabled […]
Jany Haddad – surgeon, pastor, leader, mentor and family man
Jany Haddad (born Teheran, Iran, 13 March 1954, died Aleppo, Syria, 14 August 2020) ‘Doctor, we plead with you, please do not leave Aleppo, you are the salt of this land. You are the light of this city.’ So spoke Dr Jany Haddad’s Muslim patients during the dark days in Syria when hundreds of thousands […]
Three ways COVID-19 has changed me as a doctor
COVID-19 has changed the world, the medical profession, and the NHS in ways we are only beginning to understand. In my A&E department, we have seen patients with oxygen saturations lower than we previously thought were possible, treated our own hospital colleagues – some of whom went to ITU, broke more bad news down the […]
Priceless but penniless: The ‘heroes’ denied a pay rise
On 21 July, the Treasury announced a pay rise for almost 900,000 public sector workers. Months into a pandemic, this was surely a perceptive move by the government to cultivate a positive relationship with its valuable ‘frontliners’. However, not everybody embraced the pay rise, because the pay rise did not embrace everybody. In the NHS, […]
COVID-19: God in the gaps
One of my favourite things to do is walk in the mountains of Snowdonia. I spent many a day off in its breath-taking hills during my time working in Bangor a few years ago. One memorable day out was when a friend took me scrambling up the side of Tryfan, notorious not just for its […]
Bad news for the unborn
The latest figures from the ONS reveal that by the beginning of June, 47,820 people in England and Wales had died as a result of contracting COVID-19. Half a million had died worldwide. Yet there is a greater killer at large, one whose death toll, worldwide, was forty times that. In England and Wales, last […]
COVID-19 exposing global health inequalities
Last week, I looked at how COVID-19 was disproportionately affecting people of colour in the UK, and how existing social and health inequalities were being brought into the light once again by the pandemic. But while the rich world grapples with its legacy of social division, racism and systemic injustice, the other two-thirds of the […]
The NHS quietly changes its transgender guidance
Last week in The Spectator, James Kirkup revealed that the NHS had amended its transgender guidance for children. It is unclear whether or not this is directly related to the legal challenges currently being mounted by children, parents and young adults who say that transitioning has adversely affected them, but it is certainly interesting timing.
