The Accidental Doctor Letter

A long walk with a doctor friend.

Once a week, on a Sunday. One patient story, one lesson, one connection the ten-minute appointment couldn't make. Short enough to read with coffee. Substantive enough to remember on Wednesday.

No spam. Unsubscribe at the bottom of any letter.

What to expect

One story

An anonymised patient moment, a memory from surgery, or a scene from the ship at sea. Told plainly, told honestly.

One lesson

The transferable kind. For you, not for other doctors. Sourced when there's evidence. Hedged when there isn't.

One link

To the video that told it in full, if you'd rather watch — or to the guideline, paper, or reading that backs it up.

Educational content only. Nothing in this newsletter is personal medical advice. If a symptom concerns you, see a clinician who can examine you.
