2/4 We have the privilege of 3 exceptional PAโs in our unit who contribute in all aspects of patient care, including theatre. Their role is complimentary to that of our junior doctors and facilitates training rather than taking away opportunities.
3/4 As an example, our PA who assists robotic surgical cases has hugely facilitated console time for our junior doctors, and helped train in assisting robotic surgery.ย So letโs talk about how we can all work in synergy.
We'd like to wish a very happy retirement to Ken Anson, who has worked at the Trust for an incredible 22 years.
Ken was appointed as a Consultant Urologist in 1998, immediately after completing his training at St Georgeโs.
Enjoy your well-deserved retirement Ken!
