In the world of metastasing item numbers, over-governance & underfunding there is a proposal to add an item number for domestic violence. Adding item numbers with tiny carrots in them won't work. Here's why. medicalrepublic.com.au/why-a-domestic…

As I told @ha_teya - vaping is not a harmless alternative and more must be done to stop young people,including kids and teenagers, from taking up the habit. We simply don’t know the long-term health impacts and it isn’t worth the risk. #vaping
The law is one thing, the reality on the ground is another. As of 2019, it's estimated 10% of abortion services were delivered in public hospitals. All women must have access to affordable healthcare, including abortion services, irrespective of postcode. medicalrepublic.com.au/public-hospita…
As I told @hollythepayne from @Medicalrepublic - there is a reason the TGA rejected an application to down-schedule the contraceptive pill. Allowing pharmacists to be the main prescribers of this contraceptive option is a step in the wrong direction. #GP medicalrepublic.com.au/when-the-tga-s…

Sometimes I feel bad for saying no or making a call. Then I get reminded why it was the right choice after all …
It’s fascinating that we still use the term “IMGs” Many of these doctors are citizens/PR. They’ve met stringent requirements for equivalency, undergone Oz training or re-sat exams Are they not now Australian trained once have Oz fellowship!? Irregardless of primary degree?
