As a med student, I was so anxious attending my 1st @GLADDUK event alone. Meeting LGBTQ Drs was affirming & reassured me that I could succeed as a LGBTQ Dr. But I didn't have LGBTQ surgeons to look up to & show me I could authentically be myself & succeed as a queer surgeon.

Every LGBTQ+ person we can support, help feel safe & welcomed in surgery is why we do this. LGBTQ+ students/surgeons need to thrive as their authentic selves. Representation matters 🌈 @PRiSM_Surgery @RCSnews

Yesterday I spoke with a final yr med student who has just come out as trans. She said how good she felt, but also had decided now to give up on a career in surgery I didn’t pretend it would be easy, but her face lit up when I told her about @PRiSM_Surgery This stuff matters
