Wrote a thing for today’s @theipaper which isn’t actually about the Cass Review but is about what Dr Cass called the “exceptionally toxic” discourse surrounding trans health, which serves only to harm trans patients.
March life 💚
🔬My latest for @theipaper, on everything you need to know about cancer screening and private testing services. Thanks to @drnighatarif @doctorsgetcancertoo for their wisdom.
Am I a muse now? 💁♀️
🧠 A couple of #mentalhealth guides I wrote for @telegraph’s Health Hub, respectively on #antidepressants 💊 and #gad #anxiety.

🚨#RebelBodies merch is here🚨
🩺My latest for @theipaper on the mess general practice is in and why, after years of being told there’s a GP shortage, we now have fully qualified GPs sat at home unable to find work. We should all be very worried, and very angry, about what this means for the future of our families’ health.
I spent a lot of last week trying and failing to come up with profound, empowering and inspirational posts for #WorldBookDay, #InternationalWomensDay and/or #MothersDay (three in a week is really just too much, isn’t it?)
