A Tale Of Two War(d)s by Dr Leyla Sanai I worked for years as a physician, an intensivist, and a consultant anaesthetist, and had more letters after my name (MbChB MRCP (UK) FRCA (Lond)) than in it, but this isn’t the reason I’m grateful to the NHS. The reason I will always defend doctors and nurses is because I’ve had 41 operations (44 including the 3 in this admission) and hundreds of hospital admissions as a result of two auto immune illnesses that hit me in my thirties, scleroderma and antiphospholipid syndrome. The vast majority of doctors and nurses who have cared for me have been wonderful - compassionate, conscientious, and clinically competent.
