The TV company did a great job at making it really easy for me. I got so used to turning up to work and putting on a microphone, and checking in with the “shop floor” producers. I was surprised how little impact the filming had on my day. I was pleased to think that the St Georges would have its own moment to shine.ĭid you find it had any impact on your day? Kings hospital did such a great job, and the staff and department were depicted so well. I was excited to hear that 24 Hours in A&E would be coming to film at St Georges. What did you think when they announced ’24hrs in A&E’ was going to be filmed at St George’s? One of the things that I like best about working as a consultant in an Emergency Department is that I can be treating a new born baby one minute and then a 100 year old patient the next. We see between 350-450 patients in a 24 hour period. How many patients do you treat in an average day? What conditions / illnesses do they have? St George’s offered a young, enthusiastic and vibrant team that I wanted to be a part of. I’ll have been a consultant at St George’s for three years in February. How long have you worked at St George’s? Why did you want to join the team? I have a special interest in children’s emergency medicine, so spend most of my time working in the Children’s ED. I’m one of the Emergency Department (ED) consultants.
