DescriptionThe transition from trainee to consultant provide welcome relief but also comes with fresh challenges. Gone, finally, are the training wheels to be replaced by the demands of consultancy and a permanent contract! The learning curve can be steep and the real-world problems, both clinical and managerial can be difficult to navigate. Now into his 9th year as a consultant, Andrew Flett, will highlight the issues and problems he has faced in his first decade as a consultant. A number of real clinical and management situations will be presented to show how to overcome obstacles not always found in a text book or exam situation. It is hoped these experiences will help new and budding consultants navigate the management environment of the NHS and better cope with unusual clinical situations to achieve a better work-life balance.
