Description

The FY Survival Guide is here to support medical students and new foundation doctors as they embark on their careers. Packed with practical tips, this guide is aimed at boosting your confidence as you start working and face a variety of scenarios and challenges. While we focus on surgical foundation roles, the content we will cover is beneficial for all medical specialties.

Starting October 17th, join us every Thursday for a series of FREE lectures to maximise your surgical job experience with key insights on essential topics like managing patients pre- and post-op as well as specialised teaching in general surgery, trauma and orthopaedics, and radiology.

These sessions are led by experienced doctors and cover the things we wish we had known when we first started.
