I am pleased to let you know that my research paper entitled ‘Does Personal Consultancy Improve the Well-being of Junior Doctors’ has been accepted for publication and will be presented at the prestigious Academy of Medical Educators Conference on 12-13 November 2024 at Aston University, Birmingham, UK, AoME 2024 (medicaleducators.org).

Having a family member and numerous friends in the medical profession, I saw first-hand the pressure they experienced during the transition from medical student to junior doctor. I wanted to see if Personal Consultancy can strengthen their sense of well-being and resilience. I am encouraged by the findings suggesting that this group can benefit from an approach that combines counselling and coaching.
